    Is this a stout or strong ale? Brewery only release?

    Brewery only release, limited, but not scarce. Neither a stout nor a strong ale. I don't want to spoil the surprise of what it is, I can say it hasn't been available in at least a year and a half.

    I really hope you guys are bringing back Paw Paw. It is my favorite beer from these guys. I would skip work for that one.

    Papaw's Red? Hell yes, I eagerly await a bottle release for that one as well. But that's not it. :wink:

    OK, now it's official. The Black Friday 750ml release is Double Barrel Shotgun Wedding.

    I will be there at some point. Doors open at noon. Which means I have the morning to run around town looking for BCBS

    Is there a bottle count at all. And is the brewery open on Sunday? That would be the only chance I would have to go up and get some. That is if there is any left.

    The brewery is open on Sunday. I'd call ahead of time if you're traveling any distance. Their responses to FB/Twitter are sporadic, though I'm sure if it sells out, they'll post that, too.

    For an early review of this, check Lexbeerscene.com, the guy who writes the beer blog is posting his review shortly.

    To my knowledge, it didn't sell out yet, but there was a LARGE portion sold this afternoon at the release. The line ran solid for almost 2 hours.

    I thought it was 1500 bottles, and it sold out by the end of the day. After an hour or so, half were sold and the line was gone.

    It did sell out by the end of Black Friday, but there were fewer than half that number of bottles. Once the line died off, you could get back in line to buy more. My trading partners are quite pleased about that.

    Actually a few people were buying 4 pretty much from the start of the sale. I'm glad there was a good amount available, and not some ridiculous low hard to attain amount.

    A lot of people, including regulars, who didn't show up on release day ended up with none. Rumor has it that barreled releases in the near future will have approx. the same number of bottles, but might not sell out as quickly since there's not another major Black Friday event preceding it.

    Has anyone had it yet? How did it turn out?
