    This is the message they sent me in response to if the glasses will show up online: 'We have Bolt Cutter glassware in right now but are starting with on-site sales for those coming to pick up bottles in our company store here in Grand Rapids. We plan to put the remaining inventory online on Monday, November 19, the same day that the beer will be released to all of our markets. Thanks for your interest! Cheers!'

    I didn't do a detailed review with notes, but I thought it was incredible. The smell and taste were like some type brown sugar/pineapple dessert. There is a little less bourbon than I expected, but it came out more and more as the beer warmed up. The alcohol was amazing well hidden. I almost don't believe it was 15%. The best part may have been the mouthfeel. It was very thick and velvety. This is a really impressive beer. If I had to take a stab at what the BA rating would be in 6 months, I would say somewhere in the 95-97 range.

    Definitely excited to drink this all day Saturday. My liver, however, feels opposite that.

    I believe it goes into distro next week. Unless you're in CT. Or NY. Or anywhere else where it's already been released "accidentally."

    Chicago getting it after 11/19 is what I am hearing. My wife's friend is going to the event tomorrow on my behalf! Really looking forward to this!

    Anyone looking for a third bottle that'll be at Founders tomorrow? My ticket is for tomorrow (Tuesday), and I plan on getting there at noon, however, I'm only able to buy one bottle. If anyone is looking for a third bottle that'll be there at the same time, I'll hook you up with my 2nd bottle allocation if you want to give me the cash for it. IP only, obviously. Message me if interested, and we can plan to meet at the brewery and work out any other details.

    You're first mistake was taking your wife...

    No, his mistake was not getting a ticket for his wife so he could drop $92 on 4 bottles.

    I will be there tomorrow 11/13 with Darkness '12, Sucaba, and BCBS '12 if anyone would like to do an IP trade for Bolt Cutter or sell a bottle from their allotment. Cheers!

    Anybody able to offer a ride that will be attending tomorrow, 11/13, from Chicago would be greatly appreciated. Besides ga$$$ I can also offer decent brew for your kindness. My vehicle just crapped on me & Megabus isn't an option. I don't want to miss out on the event. Plus the glasses look friggin sweet!

    I'll be going Friday with the wife for the 4 bottle $92 investment....if anyone from Chicago needs me to grab a glass or backwoods etc, let me know. I'll also be at afternoon session of fobab. Just looking to hook some brothers up if needed, got more snifters than I can drink out of.
