    As always, hard to separate out the effect of vintage from age; I liked 2015 fresh better than either 2013 or 2014. I didn't have 2012 fresh, but I do have a bottle that I guess I should open soon while the 2015 is fresh in my mind. Either way, I certainly agree that 2015 fresh is a world-beater, and definitely doesn't need to sit!

    ?????
    They don't distribute to Ohio and even if they did this exceeds our dumbass 12% ABV cap.

    An amazing beer from an amazing brewery. Wish they distributed in Florida.

    Do you guys think 2 x '15 Parabola's could pull a '15 Huna?

    depends who has the Huna. If that person is in Florida, you may have a shot. If that person is on the West Coast, probably not

    Did they? I was at Barrelworks on Sunday afternoon (the 19th) and I thought they still had plenty?

    15 Parabola is very good now, but needs some time for all the components to intragate. That's why the 14 seems more balanced .

    I live near Firestone Walker's brewery (I was just there yesterday, in fact. Had a Hammersmith IPA and a 2014 Stickee Monkee on tap and picked up a Double DBA for the cellar) if anyone's up for a Parabola trade.

    There Twitter is usually the first place you might see it. https://mobile.twitter.com/firestonewalker
    In fact it appears they announced it and retracted it. I know it's released in March now tho
