    I just was able to pick up two bottles of Pentagram. Luckily for us in Madison Wi, it distributed here and was put on shelves yesterday for some reason. However, my question is, what are your thoughts of it? Let it sit and age, or drink it now, and why do you think that way?

    I've had the privilege to drink this brew two years ago at Dark Lord Day and I've honestly been trying to trade for it since. Anyway, thanks for your time.

    Cheers,

    Sean.

    Trying to trade for it for two years?? This is about as easy it gets when it comes to aquiring a "limited" release beer. It usually sits on shelves in MN for months, if not over a year. My advice, drink one now and see what you think. If you ever need more, just let me know.

    Weird. Every trader I've tried to make a deal with has always fell through.

    May have been the beers you were trying to trade for it were undesirable? Or you need to work on your communications. Seems weird all trades fell thru for two years. Maybe there's a common denominator here...

    Could be. But I wasn't trying consistently either. Perhaps I could have chose my words more wisely.
