    Where have you seen in Denver? FTC may be too far for me to get to.

    I got mine at Wallaby's. Though I dont see it in their online inventory right now. But that doesnt necessarily mean they dont have it.

    In Denver I have seen it at Argonaut and Mr. B's. Joy's also seems like a place that might have/had it and they also might be the likeliest of that trio to still have some in stock.

    Both were back in July before I moved up to FTC so don't take this as they currently have them in. However, those are 2 places that might be worth giving a call to in advance to see if they continue to have it in stock?

    A long shot but might as well ask.

    Anyone try this one lately? I still see it hanging around and am tempted to pcik up another bottle (or two). I just question if this beer is one that can handle the age and getting any sweeter than it already was..

    Haven't seen this in stores for a long time, but I'm at a restaurant that has it and this is definitely my next beer, favorite anything I've had from Colorado, will let you know how it is, had it about 3 months ago and it was a more meady, not in the best way, still awesome though.

    Well it was kind of watered down, like every flavor lost at least half of its kick... It was still really good, but it has me pretty worried for the one I'm aging, hoping that something was a little off with that bottle... Hey I can hope. On a side note I mixed a couple ounces with a couple ounces of Upslope Barleywine and that was simply amazing.

    I really wish I could spell after having a few beers. This thread title still embarrasses me.

    I'm still a fan of this brew. It is getting sweeter and the mead is taking over, but there's still a hint of the other barrels. It's worth a try, IMO, if you see it in the $5 per bottle range.

    I have a few so I'd give you one next time I make it up there. I was thinking about going to Odell tomorrow.

    Yeah, the price for the bottles remains $7.99 so not sure I am going to bother. It would be great if they made this an annual summer release.

    And thanks for the offer, FishPondManager, but I am all good. I know a place that sells it, so if I really want it I know where to find it. Plus, I am sober this weekend and won't be able to make it to Odell for the Peach IIPA release. Fortunately, if this follows the same pattern as Amuste and Deconstruction has, this one should remain available in their taproom for a while. Should give me plenty of time to hit the taproom up and try it, as as of right now I really don't intend to spend the $13-$16 bucks for a bottle of it. That, of course, could easily change once I try it though.
