    They just started bottling variants - one per quarter-ish: Raspberry (Valentine's Day), Mole (cinco de mayo), French Quarter (TBD, chicory and barrel aged coffee beans), and Sin Mint ( TBD, mint, vanilla and graham cracker, my fav, like a Girl Scout cookie). They are all pretty awesome IMHO, but I'm a homer. If anyone wants any, let me know.

    BBT is at Xmas , I've heard about the infection issue, but haven't cracked open a bottle recently to check. As far as I know Nick, you should have the non BA raspberry, as The BA version has been brewery and select local places only.

    [​IMG] VBS - A friend has been surprising me with FW bombers lately. This time, it was Sucaba. It was great. Everything blended together so well. The bourbon barrel was very present but, to me, accompanying the other flavors to the front. This was a 2015. Is it better with age? If so, how?

    One of my good buddies turned 33 last night. Highlights from the bottle share...

    Kill shot:

    [​IMG]

    Troy Casey stopped by and brought his latest masterpiece The Cut: Cherry. He helped my buddy open his blackberry fruit stand magnum...

    [​IMG]

    ....and he brought some Tree House Growlers with him...

    [​IMG]

    ....then Troy dropped the de Garde L'Hiver Melange 1 that I brought. RIP...

    [​IMG]

    And some others...

    I thought I remembered hearing that someone was going to be in Tampa in the next couple weeks. Going back through the last couple pages I can't find it. If you are shoot me a message so I can try to figure out how to meet up. Cheers!

    I've not tried the coffee version, but I've been fortunate enough to have the base multiple times. Unfortunately I didn't get much marshmallow at all. Still a really solid beer though.

    I bought 2 of the Rue D'Floyd at 3 Floyds late in the release. I opened one about 8months ago, no infection. Gonna roll the dice on the other in the near future. Maybe I'll get lucky.

    That Top Cutter was really solid.
