    I don't actually. I think they were able to make a lot but nowhere near the amount of bavss. All speculation of course and I hope to be wrong as I too would enjoy constantly drinking it for the next few months.

    Wow, a full 5 days and I didn't post my fanboy'ism about Alesmith. Hehehe.

    BAVSS and rBAVSS still flowing inside Anvil and Stave as of yesterday close.

    Also this was happening this morning:

    3 new tanks literally being dropped in (well via crane so not dropped dropped) through a hole they made in the roof of the brewhouse.

    BAVSS and rBAVSS were still in Anvil and Stave yesterday. Both were amazing. I'm so happy I've been able to drink as much BAVSS as I have in the last six months or so.

    Nice. I wonder if it will stick around through the week, I'm planning on heading down to pick up bottles on Saturday.

    For those that haven't had it, Box Car is amazing.

    I think I saw some inside Anvil and Stave, but that was maybe only a handful over the weekend, and I had been drinking, so I might have been looking at absolutely nothing.

    Had a Boxcar this weekend. Yes, it's up there with my favorite stouts I've had. I'm a sucker for spicy. Wish I had a bunch to sit on but I'm guessing it's not one to age anyway.

    Box Car was good. Problem was I had it going up against the two BAVSS so it was AS good.

    My "homerism" for the day.

    Copious amounts of coconut going into our latest Speedway Stout variant, Thai Speedway Stout. We took our classic Imperial Stout and brewed it with the vibrant flavors of Thai ingredients. Coconut, Ginger, Lime, Lemongrass, Basil, & Coffee provide powerful notes of citrus, botanicals, and tropical fruit that balance the stout's rich chocolate, caramel, and coffee character. Thai Speedway Stout, along with Bourbon Barrel-Aged Private Stock, will be part of our upcoming bottle release on May 27, for more info on the beers and bottle sale click here: https://thaispeedwaybapsa.eventbrite.com

    I haven't skipped an Alesmith release in a very long time - but this is going to be one of them.

    Yeah, I think they had this variant on draft sometime last year. Not quite up my alley. I'll drink it on draft.....but it is tough to leave Anvil & Stave when rBAVSS is still pouring.

    So this is alesmith's take on mikkellers beergeek thailand, I see. Based on the ingredients, it is slightly nuanced.
