GI Imperial Brown Goose

I have a bottle I can trade. Not sure what it is supposed to trade for but hit me up...

 

Had one a while ago, seemed to be pretty meh and heading south...but a tickers gonna tick

 

It was a really nice beers but this thing is six years old. It was noticeably too old a couple years back.

 

I opened one and reviewed it a couple months ago; it had turned and is no longer good.

 

Just wait for Twisted Spoke 16th to be released

 

I swear I saw one of these for sale at Lush on Roscoe (in Chicago) a few months ago for around $60. If this has seriously declined I feel bad for the buyer.

 

What is this suppose to mean?

I have really been wanting to try this beer as well for a long time, just never really went after it.

Hate to hear that its heading south...

 

Agree with all accounts here... Had it about 8 months ago, and it was not all that good.

 

i'm bringing this thread back. is the Bourbon Barrel aged Imperial Brown Goose in bottles the same as Imperial Brown Goose that you guys said has fallen off? basically, is there a BA and a Non-BA version?

 

No, there is only one bottling, which is the blend of BA 2004 and 2005 Christmas Ales.

 

Why did they increase the price from $30 to $60 if it hadn't already sold on four plus years?!?

 

I think it was in their cellar, not for sale the whole time. "Cellared" beer = higher price.

 

But they had those on the counter for YEARS, as in out for sale.

 

A coworker and I were at the American Craft Beer Fest last year where we were able to taste Imperial Brown Goose. According to the guys doing the pours, Goose Island found a hitherto forgotten barrel of the stuff hidden in the back of wherever they keep their barrels. Meaning it had aged for a total of 6 years in the barrel.

It was *$&ing good

EDIT: messed up the brewery. Thanks to eyeenjoybeer for catching that
