Bell’s Bourbon Barrel-aged Cherry Stout

Yea I'm glad I bought a case, it's a favorite of mine and still drinking strong. Still have about 10 bottles left or so.

 

Really like the Cherry Stout and I hope to get to try this. It better not be over 12%!

 

The ABV doesn't matter. This will be brewery only and not see distribution.

 

Crap, and I even read the entire thread and still missed that. Wishful thinking on my part I guess. Maybe a nice Michigan BA could hook me up when it gets released.

 

There is no such thing anymore after our friends to the southwest converted us into hardcore hype building no holds barred truck stalking all night camping outing raving lunatics. If you can't beat em, join em.... thanks a lot Chicago!

 

I bought a case of this stuff when it was last released. Its easily one of my favorite Bells beers. And I don't really care too much for their regular Cherry Stout either.

I don't have any bottles from the last release. I can say that as it aged it didn't improve for me. The cherry flavor got more intense over time and almost started to sour. IMO this is a drink fresh brew. That's how it tasted best to me.

 

I'm excited for this. I, for one, really enjoy Cherry Stout. In fact, I don't know that I've had a Bell's stout that I didn't like.

 

89/90, average 4 currently. Lets see where the hype train takes this one.

 

Looks like everyone needs to start rating it 5/5 to increase the hype.

I gave it a 4.6/5, it is a great beer so let's not blame any high ratings on the hype train just yet. It obviously does not benefit me to hype it, as one of those with easy access to it I would prefer this to get as little hype as possible. I would prefer to have as little competition as possible for these bottles ;-).

"Yea, well you're not from Chicago."

 

Easy acces you say???

Come on man, we aren't all bad. I am on my way to Bell's right now to camp out until this is released. Come share some beer with me.

 

I would come out and share some bottles, but you drank them all on KBS day and I have nothing left...

 

Ooops, just let me know when you'll be in or around Chicago and I'll get you back. Dld day?
