    My vote is for either Black Biscuit ($15-18/bottle) or Cashew Mtn. Brown ($25-30/bottle). A barleywine would be nice, but it would be called something other than Nemesis.

    How can you go wrong with the name Nemeis?

    Founders won't be using the name "Nemesis", because there's another brewery/beer that was using it prior to Founders. I don't think it's a legal thing, just the "right" thing to do.

    I tryed to find a link to the story I read about this, but I couldn't find it. Someone else can if they'd like.

    I remember that story as well, now that you mention it.

    Not really the best comparison there. Different situations, different reasons, just completely different.

    My guess is that they release it around Founder's Fest (June 23) and it'll be a 15th Anniversary beer. I really really want Cashew as well, that was liquid gold. But I think it'll be on the lighter side, no BA stouts or the like, 8-10% ABV range since it'll be in the summer.

    Dammit! I stood in line for an hour at the guest taps at DLD last year to only get halfway through the line, and that was on tap. We made the decision to leave that line to go get our Dark Lord. Really wish I could have had that.

    Better than good, that beer fresh a couple years ago was absolutely mind blowing.

    Cashew mountain brown would be sweet, BA reds rye is really really good.

    Take this as you will, but myself and another BA from NC spoke with a brewer from Founders today at Founders. We were told the next release for sure is Frangelic Mountain Brown. Again, take it as you will, just passin the info on.

    That would be excellent! My favorite beer from KBS release day! Preferred it to the Sumatra.

    I second it being Frangelic Mountain Brown. Heard it at a recent release from a very reliable source.

    That is fucking awesome. It was my favorite beer on tap at KBS release. Now the question is, when?
