    On the other hand, I think it's one too many, but they are trending in the right direction!

    To be honest, if it was almost anything but chocolate, I might be elated. But; I’m just not someone that has ever really felt like, “Hey, you know what I need more of in my stout that already has naturally chocolate flavor? More chocolate”. I don’t want the extra bitterness or anything associated. It’s just not really my thing.

    But! I appreciate them doing it, and I hope everyone enjoys.

    …and, I’m still tempted. Because, well. Duh.

    Well, you'll have about a couple weeks before the Benthic release after this one. Can't speak to all the other brewery releases which are happening in the mean time, however. :laughing:

    Sickle Through Sable is live.

    Can we just crown Half Acre as kings of visual design? Another gorgeous looking can on this one.

    I thought you’d prefer bigger cans given your affinity for crowlers.

    $63.88 for 2 two packs. $8.52 in service charge alone.

    I’m letting this one go. Even with the story length description

    $1.33 / oz. Certainly not the worst pricing I have seen.

    Goddamn I'm excited to get back to Chicago next week.
    If you hear heavy breathing while you're standing there, at the bar at Balmoral, in the background next... well, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
    IT ME.
    Coming for ya!

    Most "craft beer" fans don't want to challenge @eppCOS to a foot race...
