    They still had some BA beers on tap at Hay Merchant when I was there earlier. They were all messy, and I was let down. After the first two batches BBA Hellfighter, Fra-Gee-Lay is the only barrel-aged beer they put out that I've enjoyed. That said, the only BA beers from them -- that I know of -- that I haven't had, were CBA Barn Burner and BBA Hellfighter with cherries, and this batch cask BBA Hellfighter.

    That's what I thought as well. Can't wait to see what comes out of the tasting.

    Rodeo Clown is a barleywine :wink: Still, an excellent beer whatever you call it.

    Fresh Nugs is so damn good. I hope they don't retire it.

    I haven't had Fresh Nugs yet... though my one friend who did try it, didn't really like it much... on the other hand, I just had Weekend Warrior.. and think it is really good. A great session beer.. I see no reason for it to be seasonal in Texas... plenty of hot weather year round.

    Bring on Weekend Warrior! Anyone know what beers they are bringing to the Rockwell tap takeover?

    If it's like the tap takeovers in Houston.. pretty much everything... BB Hellfighter, Fragilee, Yule Shoot Your Eye Out, Pontificator, Weekend Warrior, Fresh Nugs, and all of the regulars.. plus some other barrel aged stuff...

    I didn't make it out, but saw the list and pics of the taps at the Flying Saucer.

    Cool - went to the Downtown Saucer takeover but Rockwells doesn't have that much space so I'm curious as to what they were bringing. It's a pain when they are crowded.

    Saw Rodeo Clown on tap locally. Can anyone confirm the release of Karbach outside Houston area?

    Not that I know of. There was a story about a keg making it to your town and Karbach threw a shit fit with their distributor. I say shhhh and enjoy.
