    PIRATE BOMB!
    September 9, 2014

    In case you’ve missed all of our (not so) subtle hints, Pirate Bomb! is coming back. Oklahoma distributors picked up today, and we should ship out to Texas and Shelton Brothers the week of September 22nd.

    Weren’t lucky enough to try it at the last release? Pirate Bomb! is our beer Bomb! aged in rum casks. Aging in casks imparts more vanilla and coconut flavors to the beer and also adds more body and smoothness to the already explosive and expressive flavors of Bomb! Basically, it’s deliciousness in a bottle. It has an ABV of 13%.

    Pirate Bomb! is rated 1oo on ratebeer & 99 on Beeradvocate. It’s easy to see why with reviews like this: “this beer is quite possibly beer of the year. Quite the revelation, a perfect combination of coffee and rum.”

    If you’re lucky enough, grab a bottle or two and enjoy them with a friend. Or, even better, try it next to Bomb! or Bible Belt.

    cheers.

    Great beer. That is it, that is all. Glad I've had both in bottle and on tap. If I never had another again, I wouldn't feel too bad about it. :slight_smile:

    Now hand me another better and more readily available Speedway Stout...

    I've already been chatting with my local beer buyers to make sure I've got this locked down when it comes in!

    Yea that's what I was thinking. First the rumor was "Texas Only" then Ok and TX. Now if Shelton is getting some I'd guess we'll see further distro. Here's to another day of adjusting my work schedule so I can hopefully track down a single 12 oz bottle! Oh the things we do!

    If you get stuff like Mikkeller, Cantillon, Dieu du Ciel, Saint Somewhere, etc in your area then they distribute there

    I paid $10/bottle, but expect to trade higher. Not as big of a batch as we thought.

    ISO! If anyone wants to set up a trade for some Midwest stuff (Hoppin Frog, bourbon county, Founders, Bells, Thirsty Dog, Central Waters, or Cantillon-I know not Midwest), shoot me a message. I have limited releases etc.

    Cheers y'all!

    Paid 9.50 with tax, there were only two bottles left when I got there. Figured the price would be similar to Bomb! and planned to get two, I was disappointed when it wasn't.

    Wait until all the Texas people see it for $11 and complain... then buy it.
