    So I had a biscotti (an actual one, with coffee) recently and now I've had a sudden craving to try the Imperial Biscotti Break. I know of a few places that get Evil Twin, but most of their beers seem to be on rotation. Does anyone know what times of the year their beers get released? Specifically Imperical Biscotti Break, but I'm also interested in others like I Love You With My Stout.

    Pretty sure Imperial Biscotti Break is year-round. BBA IBB was done twice. You might also want to check out Even More Jesus and Double Barrel Jesus (if you can find it/trade for it). Lil' B, Bozo Beer, Imperial Doughnut Break (made with local gourmet doughtnuts by GLAZED) and DeCicco's Version of IBB is very good too. It's brewed with chilis and hazelnuts.

    I feel like it is a complete crap shoot. Half of their beers are only brewed once, but then randomly show up on shelves again.

    This is the best guide I know of: http://eviltwin.dk/

    I agree, they always seem to be popping up randomly in my local stores.

    There's some IBB barrel-aging right now at Westbrook. No idea on when they're releasing this. I did also see a couple of large pallets of regular IBB that was bottled on Wednesday (7/9/14) sitting on the floor (during the tour), so get ready for another fresh batch soon.

    Not sure, but recently had my first IBB. Shit was good, and better than I expected it would be. Definitely in my top 3 non BA stouts. If you find it, get it and get multiples.

    Also, I second the Doughnut and Lil B' suggestions. Going to crack open an EMJ this weekend...I'm expecting big things.

    I picked up an Imperial Biscotti Break and an IBB DeCicco's version just last week, so it's at least around 'round here. I wanted to do a side-by-side tasting, until I decided at 11.5% each it probably wasn't a good move.

    I also recommend DBJ. That brew is fantastic!

    picked up some IBB on the upper east side last week. Wayyyy to sweet for me. Key to good ratings: boozy, sweet, and expensive

    Hop Flood
    Bikini Beer
    Ryan and the Beaster Bunny
    Freudian Slip
    Lil' B
    I love You With My Stout

    Another batch of BB Biscotti sounds great to me! I've also noticed random appearances of Evil Twin Beers. Not sure there's any sort of regular rotation or seasonal release of Biscotti and the variants.

    Really??? That's like drinking a DIPA and then complain that it's too hoppy.

    It would be nice to know the exact dates on which I won't be able to afford a particular beer of theirs.
