Ten Fidy is a great imperial stout, but it's no Parabola. I think BCBS is better than Parabola and nearly half the price. In fact it's only a few bucks more a 4 pack than Ten Fidy. With that said I don't go to crazy for Stone IRS and Founders Imperial Stout because Ten Fidy hangs around
I had Parabola yesterday and was seriously disappointed. I'm really glad I didn't try to track down a bottle.
BA rankings on them: Ten Fidy: 97 users, 100 bros. Parabola: 100 users, 95 bros Ratebeer: Ten Fidy: 100 overall, 98 style Parabola: 100 overall, 99 style So...I think it is safe to say that both are effin awesome beers.
well to each his/her/its own.. i love Ten Fidy but Parabola is on another level Im curious what vintage your parabola was as i dont think it ages super well after maybe a year or 18 months
Both beers are great but Parabola is the next level. I going to do a vertical of 11-14 of Parabola soon I hope the 2011 held up.
Assuming nothing bad happened to your particular bottle, 2011 Parabola is drinking fantastic right now.
It has come and gone at Papago- was $15 per with a 2 bottle limit- hoping we see similar prices in the area this week. They received 4 cases.
Goodyear TW had it, but I can't find it anywhere else on the west side or even phx/scottsdale. My buddy said gilbert had 10 cases though.
If you're willing to take the trip, try Bevmo Tempe (mktplace) and Chandler (Ray rd)- they still should have some.
I have had all vintages including 2010 this year they're all great but 10, 11 past their prime for sure
