August rare shelf beers

Haggen in Smohomish had over a case of B-bomb when I was in a week ago in case anyone needed a fix.

 

Moving along back to the original subject...PNC will be available at BW next Thursday! Ill definitely try it before buying but it sounds great.

Cheers all,
Ryan

 

tried it last night, it was much better than i expected. right amount of tequila barrel for sure

 

Confirmed. 1999 and 2001 Leviathan, 2001 and 2002 Poseidon.

 

11-14 year old stouts and barleywines at $60+. I cannot imagine the buyers remorse.

 

The Poseidon I had last year was very, very good. $60 good, maybe not, but $15 split four ways, I would do that.

 

At the PNA Winter Beer Taste last year I "won" a bottle of 2001 Leviathan at the silent auction for $25. For that price it was awesome. Not sure I would shell out $60 for it though unless I was splitting it with a bunch of people.

 

It is okay to not ball like me Hollis...BA Levi is freaking awesome.

 

I stopped in there tonight. Unfortunately there wasn't any AD left but aside from that.....I was blown away! Not a massive selection or anything, but still, for a Shell gas station? Really?????? Place was unreal.

 

Not sure how baller it is when all you need is $70 and some free time....

I mean, I buy my seedless watermelons at Whole Foods, not Costco. How baller is that man?

 

I don't consider buying a $62 old ass stout, posting 10-15 FT's in a desperate attempt to trade it away for walez and then splitting said wæl with 18 people and raving about a 1.3oz pour to be "balling". Just one humble beer geeks opinion though.

 

Well considering that trading those BA Fish beers let me try all of these (in humble 1.3 oz pours):

I think I'm okay with spending the $62.

 

That IS pretty baller Colin. Screw CostCo man...that parking lot pisses me off...every time.

 

Surely you've heard the legend of Icarus. Greek guy, wax/feather wings, flew too close to the sun...

 

Icarus doesn't ring a bell...I did meet Dave a few weeks ago though...

 

Close enough.

 

Stone 17th hit Chucks today, along with a Whiskey Barreled Pike Stout.

 

Seek Arctic Devil?
Bottleworks has '11
for 18 dollars

 

Any chance Rye-on-rye can be found anywhere in seattle still?
