    A year from now, I look forward to seeing a thread about this beer in the cellaring forum.

    Founders has their Stouts and Stone has their IPAs. Can't wait to get some into my liver.

    If this gets to MD, it'll get to us in september or a week before.

    That being said about their distribution, I love that a Company will take this approach knowing that there will be a lot of these that sit on the shelf and don't sell because of the date.

    The labeling process should require a bottling date for every beer.

    Took the Stone tour last weekend and the guide said Stone has "Never released a bad beer... Well I shouldn't say never. We take quality control very seriously."

    I would've raised my hand and asked them about the BA IRS.

    i wonder what their spin is on releasing old bottles of double dry hopped ruination last year. it's a nice sound bite at least.

    One could argue that 80% of their Collabs & Anni beers haven't been that great.

    Are we to assume that these were packaged on June 21st since their (D)IPAs all have 90 day enjoy by dates?

    I'm going to drink mine on 9/22/12 but at 2AM. The beer will still be on West Coast time, so it will think it's 11PM on 9/21
