    Really just more curious than anything. Wondering if there is any of the original batch left (maybe hidden somewhere at the brewery?). Did they even bottle any of the original batch. If not, what are the oldest bottles still out there. Bonus points if anyone can give notes on an old vintage they have had recently. Cheers.

    Their bottling plant on Fulton and Wood did not open until 1995. I'm going to venture a guess that they did not bottle before that. I could be wrong.

    edit: I'm not wrong, they began bottling in 95

    So, any bottles from the late nineties floating around? I thought I remember them not bottling it until 2002, could be wrong...

    Everything you need to know is in this thread: GI BCBS Bottling

    Also, here are some BCBS vertical reviews I found while searching: One & Two.

    I have a friend who has some early BCBS bottles that were handed out at a beer event in the early 2000's. I think he said it was 2002 or 2003. It probably tastes terrible at this point, but I want to try it.
