    First of all what is the trade value? I have seen all kinds of crazy offers get done.
    Second Should I save it for later?

    Or just drink it?

    The answer to this is always "drink it." Always.

    It's freaking delicious. If you like BA barleywines, drink it.

    Drink it. The "community" needs more of this and less searching for blubber

    Save it. Then throw it away when you are old and have diabetes.

    Seriously these are the worst threads. It's beer, you're asking if you should drink it? Yes, you should drink beer if you enjoy drinking beer.

    I mean drink it now or later... I want to know from people who have had it if they think it will be better with age if its good now.

    If you've never had it, drink it now. Otherwise aging is pointless because you don't know how it tasted fresh

    I think I'd only trade mine for KBBS. The beer is absolutely fantastic. I've seen some people say it's hot but I disagree. There's just a lot of bourbon but I wouldn't call it hot

    I found it a little hot but i will develop amazingly over time.
    I have been offered rare, gray monday, or Ba Abraxas for my K-13

    Nobody knows. Seriously: Nobody knows exactly how this beer will age. This is the first time it's been brewed, right?

    I understand that people want to maximize their experience of a beer they aren't sure they'll get to try again. But if you age it without trying it you will never know if you would have enjoyed it more when it was fresh.

    Aging will change a beer. There is no guarantee aging will improve a beer. So get a few friends together and share that bottle.

    i think that beer is going to pull a BCBVS, so i'd hang on to it for a few years and then take that check to the bank.
