    Heads Up If You're Bonkers For Honker's!

    Goose Island Beer Co. It's an ESB. Think beefed up version of Honker's Ale...the beer that started it all!

    I'm on board. Goose Island has always been a favorite of mine. Honkers is great too. Stoked.

    Is this an art deco version of Honkers? Does it come with free tickets to the Great Gatsby?

    1.)People complain that it's not Barrel Aged

    or

    2.) If it was Barrel Aged it would be limited and people would complain they can't find any/people hoarding/price gouging

    I read somewhere that it was 6.4%. I don't have facebook, does that link have any more details?

    Either way it sounds good. I can't wait.

    Queue Blackdragon coming in and saying GI should have made it CBS because Founders sucks and don't make it every month.

    On another note, I'm looking forward to this. I love me a good ESB

    I wonder if they have anything else up their sleeves.

    Why don't the bottle Marisol? That stuff is incredible.
