    I'll do you a favor and just drink the bcbs for you (a true friend) so that way your decision is much easier. :slight_smile:

    Aw what the hell. Bringing a growler of 2011 Bourbon County Stout and Bells Black Note. Someone has to counter balance the Yuengling and DR11.

    Hows the seal on that growler? I have never considered aging a growler.

    That was much better than I expected. Some pretty great bottles. Bummed I missed out on the CBS, but I was able to catch the last pour from the Bourbon County Coffee. And thanks again for the Black Note!

    I have kept growlers for a few months with no problems. Not perfect carbonation but not flat either. Worth doing with something cool.
