    Well now I feel silly for passing on it for 12.99.... Wish we could get some more.

    Local store had 4-packs for $24.99. I laughed, bought some Faygo Red Pop and walked out. By far the most I've ever seen for it.

    It actually tastes like an amazing barleywine with age.

    Spoke with the owner of Sciliano's in Grand Rapids and he said the few cases they have left is probably the last shipment they are getting of it

    Bought it for $12.99 a 4pack here in PA. Already has some barleywine characteristics IMO.

    I had one fresh last year and it was bad, but this years is great, I wouldn't age it, unless you have an extra bottle, but even still I would drink it fresh its so good right now!
