Event Horizon release date?

When will we see this in Raleigh?

 

Had it on tap today at City Bev. Very nice and smooth. The honey doesn't overpower it but it created a nice overall texture. Buddy of mine had it for the first time and thought it was borderline too sweet for him however, he did enjoy it. I tend to lean more towards the sweet side but do appreciate all attributes of a stout. this one did not disappoint.

 

13 bucks at Bestway. It will be gone by the weekend.

 

I was there as well. Would have been cool to meet you guys!

I thought this version was as good as the original, and far better than last year's. Though a bit on the sweeter side, I think this beer does such a great job of balancing the stout character with the barreling. Neither overpowers. The bourbon comes across much more subtle than some of their other BBA brews, which I love. This beer solidified in my mind that this is THE best beer to come out of NC.

 

BCBS is a tad on the sweet side as well, it doesn't hide the greatness though.

 

I'll firmly place TEV in my rotating top 5 of best beers in our state. I would probably give the ever-so-slight edge to Lindley Park, but that is splitting hairs to the max.

 

I'll be honest, I was going to mention how this batch far surpassed its 2011 sibling. I don't know what it was exactly. Perhaps I should juxtapose them.

Sorry we did not meet up at the event. Guess we will just have to rendezvous another time for a brew.

 

Just might be able to make the Duck's event. Will bring beer to share.

 

Still no word on when this is hitting the Triangle?

 

Please don't take this the wrong way, as I mean to be inquisitive only. I thought in NC, only package stores and breweries (meaning: places that have off-premise sales permits) could sell beer to go, not retail (ie: bars, restaurants, etc.: where these places don't have those types of licenses). Can a bar/restaurant get these types of licenses? And is DWs selling the beer for this event? Like I said, I'm not accusing of legal issues, just trying to get clarification. I'd really hate to see the ALE walk in and hand out fines, etc.

 

Yes, any retailer (bars/restaurants/bottle shops/brewery taprooms/others) can get these permits in NC.

 

Shout out to the Peabodys crew for the AMAZING box coming my way. Thanks boys!

 

Thanks for the clarification Win.

 

And just in time for Thanksgiving Family Time!!

 

Very high likelihood the answer is today.

 

Get some!

 

Planning to. OHB has confirmed today in the RDU area via Twitter.

 

did anyone ever confirm the barrels used this year?

 

3:00 earliest drop, as per very good authority.

 

Hmm... The post on twitter sounds as if it's already in stores and will be released at 3:00.
