    Well that explains the one I drank last night. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great and nothing like I remember from last year. It probably explains the first one I had a bit ago as well and why I was disappointed with it.

    I shared a bottle of regular Big Bad Baptist with a buddy on Thursday that was off. He purchased it from Total Wine in Chan earlier in the day (so not refrigerated since release). We opened another one last night that I had kept in the fridge since the release last year. That one wasn't as bad, but it still had some sour cherry in the aroma and didn't have the characteristic chocolate flavor that BBB typically has. Both bottles were release #94.

    Why would someone post about off flavors in a bb beer in this forum?

    No one was hunting BCBS when you mentioned what you did, which differs completely from someone mentioning experiences with BBB which is on shelves and people may actively be purchasing.

    Don’t worry. There’s still a solid 10 months to get back up to number one from number 2.

    I’m not sure if anyone cares, but City Lights is expanding distribution to Minnesota.
