    Maybe it would make an interesting coaster if it's flat on the bottom.

    I saw this gift pack a week ago at one of my favorite beer stores ($34.95), and it looked like the glasses might be etched with the logo rather than painted, but I didn't look closely. Maybe it's a grayish paint that looks like etched.

    If the bung could plug the snifter that would be worth it....

    Or it it's big enough you could lay it on top of the snifter while you're outside for a smoke. :wink:

    You guys seen the KBS rebate? $5 rebate with KBS 4 pack purchase. Text "Founders" to 68255...

    Was able to get KBS at $17.99, making my 4 pack $12.99 upon rebate receipt. No idea if you can apply for rebate multiple times on separate purchases.

    At first I thought you were trolling but its true. Rebate not good on KBS Variants.

    Thought this part in the official rules was interesting. Are KBS cans even a thing?

    My Binnys (Portage Park) already has it on sale for $17.99. I wonder if this would apply on top of that

    French Toast Bastard was everything one would expect and more. Either people had wallet fatigue from Black Friday or the boycott is real because it was a fairly quick in/out after the initial rush at 11:00am.

    +1. I just happened to be going to Founder's on Sunday for lunch. I found out right before I left that this was going to be a thing on Sunday. Tried it on tap when we got there and thought it was great. Pretty good value at $20 per 6-pack, IMO. I left around 1 PM and they had cases and cases left.

    I had a similar experience. I stopped by late Tuesday afternoon. They had about 15 to 20 cases behind the counter. Not much action going on in there.

    I also agree that French Toast Bastard is a top notch beer. But not quite as good as Wizard Burial Ground at Vivant right now. That beer is a stunner year in and year out.

    KBS expresso is a coffee lovers wet dream

    French Toast tastes exactly like its name, also delicious
