    Man I would love to go to this event. If only they had it on a weekend, I might have even flown in for it. That beer list is just crazy.

    So what's the over/under on the number of "had it in my cart and then it disappeared!" complaint posts in this thread related to the BT sale today?

    I imagine it will even last a couple days. This beer doesn't have the hype it used to and people have had it and there is no trade value in this beer. Also, I am sure they made a crap ton of it. Does anyone know how many barrel they have for black tuesday and all of its variants? It has to be close to a whole warehouse now.

    I think today is probably the first stress test for the new system. I'm interested in seeing how it holds up to the big bump in traffic.

    ya, I think it's safe to say the BT hype train is dead.

    More like "I didn't put these bottles of BT in my cart and can't get them out to purchase the Hottenroth I want!"

    I totally disagree here.

    BT for $25.50 (for RS, $24 for HS) may seem steep, but if you really think about it, it's not.

    If you walk into any bar and order 3 beers, with tip you are just about at that same price point. And that is over a month (who here drinks 3 beers a month?). Most places that serve high ABV stuff only pour 6oz or so (or max for 20% stuff), which means you are paying $6.25 or so for a glass of BT.

    That is cheap in my book.

    Just curious as to people's opinions on the optimal aging range for BT. I imagine 2-3 years is no problem - any thoughts on going beyond this?

    09 is tasting so fine, but that may as well be called a different beer name altogether. Either way, more years on it are fine.

    The biggest hurdle stopping me from buying a lot of BT is the size format. Put it in 12oz bottles and I'll be happy. Cause even 12oz is way more than I need for this to take it to a share.
