    I have about 6 or 7 2012s left and 2 2011s left. I'll only be buying around 4 2013s.

    I might pay cash for a 2012, have they been kept decently?
    Not for me (not into pumpkin beer), for my brother in MA.

    I'd probably be down for that. Let me check my stock tonight to make sure of how many I have.

    Yeah I'd pull the trigger on this. Still have too many 2012s.

    Honest question to the people with many 2012s left still: was it not as good as expected or did you buy extras to trade and nobody wanted it?

    I have 10 or so bottles of 2012 left... I bought 2 cases originally because I like it, and more importantly, my girlfriend loves it. I don't trade it, I would never even consider selling it, and only sometimes throw it in as an extra...

    So to answer your question, neither, I just enjoy drinking the beer every few weeks!

    It makes a great extra for trades. I have more left not because I bought too much but because family members did and decided they didn't want any more. I still think it's delicious but only drink it when it's really cold outside.

    Thanks, I was just curious as I missed out on the 2012 release (I've gotten to try it and really liked it) but was surprised to see people still looking to get rid of a couple bottles a year out of a release that is somewhat hyped up.

    And I completely get keeping the girlfriend happy beer wise, my wife has decided her favorite beers are from Crooked Stave, so I stock up on those when I can

    My wife decided King Henry was her favorite beer. I wanted to stab her in the face.

    Anyone with a spare 2012 want to sell a bottle?
    IP in ATX before October 15 preferred so I can bring it to my brother, though later this month works too.

    Gave me an excuse to drop $$$ at CM last week. Had to buy a bunch of beer for the gf to try :wink:

    This will be my fifth pumpkin season in TX, and I've never seen/tasted Pumpkinator. Is the hype real compared to, say, Pumking?

    I hope we get it at our new Specs this year. I'm hoping to see Warlock and Pumking, too.

    Much different beers. I prefer Pumking, but some hate it. I think Pumpkinator has too much nutmeg and spice.

    Pumpkinator is a stout too. Pumking is not.

    Saying Pumking is bad makes me question your credibility, LOL. I will have Pumpkinator this year. It will be mine.

    Not sure where you are, but Warlock and Pumking are out already...
    Cases of each in many stores in Austin.

    Laredo. There is little hope. Some of my coworkers visit family in ATX and SA regularly, though. I'll have to get them to mule me some down here.
