    Sorry for the late reply, but I had posted earlier about Total Wine in McLean, that's where I picked them up.

    I just stopped by and all I saw were yellow labeled 3F bottles that say "Oude Geuze blended with lambic beer and aged in oak" - are those not golden blend?

    Looks just like the bottle pictured here - http://www.beercartel.com.au/3-fonteinen-oude-geuze-golden-blend/

    That bottle is mislabeled as Golden Blend. The Golden Blend bottles look like this:

    While we're on the topic of mislabeled bottles, I got a fucking gose inside an Omnipollo fatamorgana bottle at Calvert. Neither 12% or Omnipollo seem to care to respond, be careful out there dudes.

    Both hit the DC metro area every year. If you like Avery's high ABV beers and pumpkin, you'll dig them.

    They are big boozy pumpkin stouts that age well. I would venture to say both are about even and it comes down to whether you like a Bourbon barrel or a Rum barrel beer. The price is the biggest drawback.

    Haven't seen that one anywhere, but Dominion had a lot of Ferme De Grand-Pere left. It's one of the cheaper bottles ($12.99) and it was fantastic. Better than a lot of their expensive stuff IMO.

    I haven't been able to find any price/quality correlation with Wicked Weed sours, its hard to tell why some are so much more expensive than others.
