    Beer dude says this should last until Thursday...449 bottles I believe. Too lazy to go ask any more questions. My buddy J tending bar says this has a nice funk to it...those peaches were in there for quite a while. Enjoying a Zombie on cask now contemplating purchasing one for personal consumption. :slight_smile:

    I am not going out of my way for it, but being as you're there already, for $20 I say you should definitely pick one up to try out.

    You just had to know where to ask last weekend. GI distributed 09 bombers to various stores (in addition to 2010 and 2011 vintage bottles)

    The only place I heard that had them was Vas Foremost. I didn't look around though because I thought they just brought some out of their cellar. Of course I would rather drop $20 on 09 BCBS, so PM me where else I can look for it!

    That's not really a gift that keeps on giving. The memory of drinking a Bully Guppy, on the other hand...

    Tastes like and smells like nail polish remover. I wouldn't trade a regular gumballhead for this. Don't bother with this one guys.

    Came and went as far as I am aware. Just got a single 09 bomber plus 1x 2011 and 2010 personally.

    Sadly didn't know vas had it....I got a regular Bcs four pack when I was there! Would have loved another 09 and 2010 to help round up a four pack vertical back to 07

    I'm already sitting outside waiting for the 10/2 release. I don't know what it is, and I haven't tasted it, but I know it's going to be awesome. Will pre-trade someone....wales only.

    Anyone else notice a pattern? Understandably, the cost to make a Wheat beer is less than the cost to make a Stout or Barleywine, etc., but the price differences (IMHO) seem to correlate with the quality of the beer being produced (with some potential exceptions) - almost as if the prices are an indication of the quality of the beer - to wit:

    Calumet Queen - $5
    Moloko - $8
    Munsterfest - $8
    Dreadnaught - $10
    Risgoop - $15
    Live a Rich Life / Shark Pants - $15
    Barrel Aged Gumballhead with Peaches (Bully Guppy) - $20
    Barrel Aged Moloko / Robert the Bruce, etc. - $35
    Barrel Aged Dark Lord - $50
