    I like to call it barrelly-aged. 2nd or 3rd use depending on how you think of it. 2015 is a completely different beer.

    14 was barrel aged in that it was put in barrels to transport it with the opening of the new brewery. It was not meant to be aged from the beginning.

    I'm quite excited for this release, and I hope it isn't too hard to come by. This has been a rough few months on my savings account...

    Where did you hear that? Todd said on some podcast they made over 100 barrels worth so that would translate to LOTS of bottles.

    The initial speculation way back when was 3000 total. 1500 at DDAY and 1500 for distro. I'm led to believe this isn't the case, and that there will be at least 3 times as much. I've heard anywhere from 5000 to 10,000 multiple times. I guess we'll see when it happens.
