    They were also planning on doing BBA Double Crooked Tree and BBA Too Cream. DH, for whatever reason, chose to put Pt5 in all of their barrels instead.

    There were only 8 cases left as of yesterday morning, so my guess is that they'd be gone by now.

    Don't suppose anyone would be willing to trade some? BBPt5 is one of my fav's and would absolutely love to try this one.

    So it's less than I've seen for KBS or BN, but this beer is far rarer and available at one store. Kudos to Oppermann's for charging fairly for this even though they probably could have sold out at $9.99 considering their chokehold on supply. Impressed!

    Little-known fact: Dark Horse's overuse of wax for their 2013 4Elf releases (some of which take roughly 30 minutes and/or a chainsaw to open) led to an international wax shortage that the world has yet to recover from.

    Crimeny...why does Saginaw have to be soooooo frickin' far away?

    EDIT: In case it's not obvious, I'm ISO one bottle. In Kalamazoo. Will totally make this worth the effort.

    This is exactly how we feel about every other release in the state!

    Thanks for single handedly doubling the price of the next release. :grimacing:

    When I saw the label, I was worried that I was buying regular Pt5 that Opperman's threw a bogus sticker on. Nope, not true.
