    What day are you expecting the BA Old Rasputin? I want to try and pick at least one up, but I probably won't be able to get by until next Monday or Tuesday.

    Tomorrow, but I am probably already sold out. It is crazy limited and I was only able to get a few cases. As soon as I posted about it, it went like wild fire. Stay in touch though, these pre-sale lists are never 100%

    No worries. I'll try and swing in on Monday either way. If you have some extras great, if not I'll wait until next year.

    How do you get fresher than 1/21/13??? That's amazing regardless. Is Palette Wrecker headed our way?
    That's the beer that started my love affair w/ Green Flash. Cheers to not having to trade for it anymore.

    I could not finish the Tokyo. I enjoy big beers, be they Imperial Stouts, Imperial IPA's, Trippels or Quads, but Tokyo was way too sweet.
    However, the Mustang Imperial Stout was excellent! I was worried about the raspberries but they were very subtle and added to the flavor rather than distracting from it.

    Ouch, it always sucks to spend that kind of money on a beer and not enjoy it. Speaking of the Mustang IS, anybody know if it was brewed with real raspberries or extract? I know it says "infused with a heavy dose of luscious raspberries" but I guess I don't fully trust the brewing or marketing practices of Mustang.

    Thanks for the info. Have one sitting in the fridge and think I'm gonna split this one with a buddy or two just to say I tried it and to see what goes on.

    Welcome and I am sure that a few of us in OKC wouldn't mind meeting up for beers at Tapwerks once you are in town.

    Not sure what Bump's issue is with them. I know they used to contract brew up in Wisconsin, so to me I didn't really consider it an Oklahoma beer for that reason...
