    Lots of barrel in this beer. This is my first BB beer. Drinking pretty darn good.

    If you like BB forward beers you probably would/would have enjoyed BB 1 and 3. I'm not saying one is better than the other but they were more bourbon forward than BB4 IMO. Personally, I enjoy BB forward beers but I realize they're not for everyone. Regardless, if you're fond of whiskey, give BB1 and BB3 a shot.

    probably $6-8 at petrol. it will be a mad house. people will be lined up before 6 and they will sell out relatively quickly. just in case you havent done a BB there before.

    had the BB4 and Weizenbock side by side at FS Downtown, the Weizenbock is definitely nice, but the barrel changes it nicely.

    Hay Merchant has 20 cases tomorrow at 3pm, limit 4, $6 per. one needs to be consumed on premise.

    only tried bb4. thought the bourbon flavor overshadowed the chocolate and banana flavors. it was still really tasty, but just a little hot. also expected a little fuller body from a weizenbock. it wasnt thin, but it wasnt creamy either.

    i got much more chocolate and banana after the beer warmed up a bit.

    well i went to cedar creek to miss the crowd at petrol and they gave me a chilled pint glass and a bottle that was obviously sitting in a beer trough. i waited it out a while, but ideally i would have liked to drink it warmer. as a side note, about 80% of the people i saw drinking it were going straight from the bottle.
