    I read that it should be out since it's November, yet I haven't seen any around here yet (NE Ohio) I know that generally, it takes a little while to get here since it's brewery is a little far away. I just wonder if anyone has seen it yet :slight_smile:

    Thanks guys. In your opinion, is it really as good as some people say it is? I'm getting some regardless, just wondering since many people I know say it's amazing. I've never been disappointed by Lagunatis anyways.

    It's available in Chicagoland already. I'm sure you'll see it soon. If you like hoppy barleywines, then you'll like Brown Sugga.

    not my favorite style, but for $9.99 and at nearly 10% abv. it's a great deal, and it tastes pretty decent too!

    Looking for it in Cleveland, anytime now. You will not be disappointed. Fantastic slow sipper with a lot going on. Will kick you between the eyes if you let it.

    One of their best in my opinion........

    Awesome, thanks all! And yes, I love hoppy barleywines so that sounds like something I'd love. In fact, they may be my favorite style aside from strong ale's and double IPA's.

    It's a good beer if you're into American barleywine. It isn't as sweet as most people make it out to be. This year's batch is very Hoppy and piney. If I may suggest; try one as soon as you buy a few just to get rid of your mojo, then bottle condition the rest for late next year. CHEERS!
