    drinking last year's BYOD as we speak. bottle 26 of 1699.
    think i have 3 SKs.
    the Bellwood boys were VERY excited about SK. so i assume it tastes pretty good.

    very great :slight_smile:
    kind of tastes like TenFiddy, to be honest, but with more chocolate.

    Cognac has faded more than? Or just melded?

    Great beer, I enjoy BOYD slightly more though.

    The line-up for the release of BYOD this morning was not much different than the one for Skeleton Key. For the latter it was about 15 people at 11:05 AM. Today it was about the same at 11:17 AM when I was there. No idea if the rest of the day will be similar, but I'm guessing it will sell-out within a similar time-frame.

    The guy in line in front of me bought 14 bottles of beer today, none of which were BYOD!

    But did he get any BOYD? :slight_smile:

    In all seriousness though, maybe the guy just likes waiting in line? lol

    Bloody acronyms tripping me up...

    I was surprised just how few of the people ahead of me - lining up for the release of a limited beer - actually bought 8 bottles. It seemed most were getting 2-4.

    I've noticed that in general at Bellwoods releases. Today when I ordered 8, the guy in front of me in the line gave me this "holy shit, that's gonna break the bank" look. I should have showed him a picture of my cellar. lol

    Imagine the bills at Hill Farmstead when they opened up the right to pay Visa... 8 bottles of BOYD is nothing :slight_smile:

    melded. i found the original to be a tougher chew. it was a bottle that should have been split between 4-6 friends. 2 of us easily cleaned up the 1year old bottle
