    So I picked up a couple of bottles of this at South Lamar Wine & Spirits(Oak Hill Liquors' new location). They said Austin only got 50 cases, but I haven't seen it around anywhere else. Is this the first time it has been available in Texas? Hopefully we get BLVD Imperial Stout this year too.

    I saw it at Specs (Brodie) earlier this week. They only had a couple of cases

    Damn it! I was waiting for this release and now I'm out of town for two weeks. Hopefully still on some shelves when I get back to town.

    Saw this at Spec's Midtown (Houston) yesterday afternoon and snagged a bottle. There looked to be a fair amount, although I'm not sure how fast it was going.

    Has anyone tasted it yet? Would love to know how it is drinking before I go chasing after it...

    IMO its Boulevards best beer, I've had it many times.

    I like BBQ and the Imperial Stout better but it's a decent beer. I'll probably buy a few when it makes it's way to DFW.

    Got my couple of bottles. If it's their best beer, then I'm excited. But for me it might be hard to top Saison Brett. So delightfully dry.

    Damn good price. This one and other limited smokestacks (BBQ, S-B) are $14 here in Houston.

    Just had one earlier in the week, and its comparable to BBQ, but hard to say which is actually better.

    Gabriel's got two cases, and we've already depleted one of them.

    Drinking one right now, a bit sweet, a little spicy, some malt backbone and slightly boozy, not picking up any hops. Worth trying, might pick up another to age…$11 - $12 here in OKC.
