    If reviews were constantly saying "very sweet" for any other brewery's beer, there's no way it would get a 4.79 average rating. SP gonna SP lol

    I thought the 10 year barleywine was phenomenal and not too sweet

    Big time. It’s actually hilarious that there are people out there that have the time to do false beer check ins. It takes internet trolling to a new level lol

    Oh, I’m sure there’s that too but I was referring to inadvertent check-ins due to reading comprehension skills.

    Only about 160ish bottles to go of the silent barrel.

    VW BBT on at the brewery and unbundled to-go bottles of BVC b2.

    And onsite bottles of rBBT '20 at the brewery.

    I see the new silent barrel is getting really rave reviews on Untappd

    As a huge Scribe / 4 Happiness fan I can’t wait to try this. I really wonder what percentage of people in line assumed it would be a stout.

    Every single last one of them. I would have been too.

    Yeah, I definitely was assuming stout, with a chance of barleywine.

    Maybe my wish of them remaking Unblended 25 someday will come true (it won’t)

    I had not considered that the first three Silent Barrels were 40, 25, and 121. The sour quad is quite good, but if you are only in it for the malt, I can understand why a morning standing in line for a sour quad might be challenging.

    There was plenty of onsite maltiness to make it right tho.

    LOL. Sipping a nice cask strength rye that I bought today and cost not much more than the quad. This is an enjoyable scroll through Untappd.

    Gotta keep that trade value up for when they try to offload it. My favorite so far is, "I have had worse infected beers, but this is one of the better ones. Kudos! $70 bottle of salad dressing." 1.5/5. Guessing he would not smash again.

    Probably 100%

    since ever single silent barrel before it has been a stout

    I’ve got a bottle of a silent barrel barleywine sitting with me in the hotel as we speak. Wasn’t there also a silent barrel that was a stout/BW blend?

    So…does the rain forecast mean I can show up at 1:15 and get 11 Candles?

    or are 100 people already in line?!

    guessing the latter.

    Considering it goes on sale at noon, I doubt 1:15 gets it.
