    yeah, that's actually pretty cool. Karbach has really been testing my no ABInBev stance.

    Yeah I don't have much of a stance, just dislike of bombers. This fits the bill. If I see this it will end up in my cart

    Price point objection aside, i don't want 22oz of 13% ABV beer in one sitting. I homebrew, so i just use my bottle capper to re-cap the bottles and will finish them the next day. Never noticed any impact on carbonation.
    any homebrew store will have them for ~$20 or less.

    Yeah I have one, just feel like less of a man if I can't put the 22oz down in one sitting :slight_smile:, so therefore just avoid them now, only exception being CBS

    :slight_smile: today, grabbed a 4 pack at Vintage Park HEB. Specs showed it today on their twitter, in stock on Main. Man I am so down for BA beers going this route. This 4 pack cost the same or a few bucks more than the bomber of BBH. 3 BA variants and the original base. Nice packaging, fancy labels

    Ok just had the mole, pretty damned good. I would probably buy the hell out of this even if it wasn't BA. The chili is way more predominant than in Xocoveza and the addition of cumin really balances it out.

    If anyone knows when it will make it to SA that would be just swell.

    That shit was always so hot. Even with a year on it it was way to boozy.

    Yeah I remember the base being that way, the Mole was very restrained, a little heat up front, but the chili/chocolate and cumin are the standouts. Really enjoyed it, going to try the horchata tonite if I get the chance

    I gather from some of your post you are in the austin area, if so Specs shows having it at some of their stores. Check Specs Online. Also Total Wine shows having it at the LakeLine store, you can check their other locations on their website. But they may not be confused. Either it is in cans or someone entered the SKU wrong as it shows in cans on their website. Let us know
