    Am hoping so. Can't believe I missed out on this. One of my favorite CS releases AND BA!

    American Grudge by Rushing Duck. From their FB page.

    American Grudge is a Belgian Quad 100% aged in apple brandy barrels from Warwick Valley Winery for 17 months.

    There were a shit ton of people there and I don't think I saw anyone leave with less than 3 bottles. I'm no trader, but I have a feeling that at least 1/2 the people there are.
    There's always the option of just getting it on tap at the Source, too. They still had plenty this past Saturday.

    Capt. Lawrence's Golden Delicious is pretty easy to find in the NY area. It is my favorite BA beer.

    It was great. Worth seeking out. I also dont know why they changed that setup. The other way worked very well.

    If I remember correctly, the recent barrel aged St. Bernardus 12 was aged in Apple Brandy barrels but good luck finding one this late.

    I would also recommend Oxbow's Infinite Darkness. It's an excellent apple brandy barrel aged stout that came out last year. Long gone at the brewery I'm sure, but worth seeking out.

    Hardywood Trickery was a very limited but very well-recieved apple brandy barrel stout, you could probably still trade for it.

    In November Brothers Craft Brewing (formerly Three Brothers) will release an apple brandy barrel version of their Resolute stout (which is normally bourbon barrel aged) as an exclusive to their Horizon Society members.

    Seconded on Apple Brandy Noir, that was possibly the best beer I've had yet from Prairie.

    Just a slight clarification, it was aged in apple whiskey barrels.

    Ab Siberian Black Magic Panther was amazing. Also what you listed the AB Mexican Cake.

    There seems to have been a big run on the AB gravitation from smuttylabs recently. Dozens were left a couple of weeks ago, and they were all gone today :slight_frown:

    I was really psyched to say Golden Delicious, but got beaten to the punch... :slight_frown:

    White Birch Brewing did an AB Tripel about 2 years not sure how many I have left but it was a great beer. I'm down to a few bottles but they keep getting better with age. I'll check when I'm home next week and would love to share one with if your interested
