    I only have half the flight, 07-12. Years back, planned to have them on 12-12-12, but didn't realize it was a Wednesday until recently. Anyhow, I'll get it to it soon enough, new years maybe. Few more weeks won't hurt it.

    Wasn't it designed to be aged until after the end of the world 12.21.12? Or am I just apocalypse prone?

    All the bottles say to age to 12-12-12 or after.

    Yes

    I wonder how Stone feels about the massive overuse of the word "epic" that plagues society today? They clearly were using it to refer to things that aren't actually epic 10 years ago! They were using epic before epic was cool man!

    But seriously, if I hear someone say epic one more time I'm going to punch a swan.

    09/09/09 was phenomenal!

    I did 06,07,08, and 09 today but after that I was done. I'm planning to head back to the bar tonight and do 10,11, and 12. 06 and 09 are my favorites so far.

    I'm at Flying Saucer Austin and they're not doing flights... just 12oz or so glasses at $6.50 06-12. Making tasting notes... so far I've had the 06.06.06 and the 07.07.07, but I've got 2 more in me and I'm toast.

    That's what I did. 4 and I was done. That was with a meal and a glass of water. I'm thinking of making a trip back up there to finish the series though.

    06 was my favorite followed by 09.
