    What was the price of this and how many could CS members buy?

    Just curious because I'd like to do an ISO for more but I just want to ensure that I'm in the ballpark on my trade offers. I'm guessing $15 and I have no idea how many could be purchased.

    I did a side-by-side between this, VSB, and Farmers Reserve Blackberry and I thought L’Brett d’Blackberry was the best. VSB was definitely more sour, but I loved how balanced CS's beer was.

    Thanks in advance for any info.

    If you would have included Framboise Noir in the mix...well you'd be ISOing for it instead ;-)

    I believe it was 6 bottles along with the 2 included with the membership, and an additional 6 in the 2nd round if any were available.

    Have you had CS Blackberry Dark Origins?

    I haven't had it. Did you like that one even better?

    Blackberry Dark Origins > L'Brett D' Blackberry IMHO. I thought that L'Brett d' Blackberry was the weakest CR offering last year.

    FWIW, I think L'Brett D' Blackberry was the finest offering from 2013 CR! I *really* love the fruited Origins from last year and this one, but comparing beers like Origins to L'Brett is apples to oranges.
