    I missed this apparently this year in GA.. Good beer, but never have to seek it out.. Haven't seen it, but know of some places that probably, or hopefully have it.

    I never drink it fresh, it's so much better with a year, IMO.

    I didn't read through all of the pages so I apologize if this has been addressed but how is it 2014? If it is bottled and released in 2013 then it should be the 2013 release. Just because it doesn't hit some markets until January doesn't make it a 2014 release. I did hear that some bottles were dated in January so I guess that adds to some gray area but mine are dated 12/9/13.

    It's just semantics. It's available january through march. Some markets got it in december, but that was considered "early". There's no point in calling it the 2013 release because then you'd have two 2013 releases, this one and the previous batch. Then people would have to say "early 2013" and "late 2013 except maybe 2014" when saying the year that it released to everyone, 2014 in this case, would suffice.

    I know it is semantics but it seems like every brewery is pushing releases earlier and earlier. Pumking is practically available in the Spring. NN was early last year and this year they moved it to the very beginning of January. Hopslam was released earlier last year than it was the previous year. It just bugs me that the 2014 release was actually released in December 2013.

    Nah, 2014 Founder's Imperial Stout has been gone for quite sometime. 2015 is abundant though =D

    Might crack one from last year tonight. I prefer it to FBS, but Ten FIDY > FIS.
