    Anyone willing to pick up two four's of Cassian Sunset (if available and not a hassle) for me? Sounds like Rochester will not be seeing any due to new distributors. I'll pick up and reimburse for the trouble. Thanks

    Birthday Bomb sounds pretty intriguing to me. Wonder how limited it is though.

    I don't understand the difference between this and reg BOMB?

    BTW drinking it now, and it's definitely thicker than BOMB. That's the big thing I pull away.

    Is it sweeter? I thought I read it was supposed to have caramel added.

    Yeah I'd say so. Is that the difference between the two? They don't mention it on the bottle which is weird?

    I have been told by my distributor that Perennial is draft only for the time being. Look for it on tap at some of the local beer bars.

    There's not much of a difference. It's a higher ABV than regular, and it's brewed with Honey.

    Anyone know when the Beer Camp pack will drop here and if it will be as limited as it was last year?

    Cassian Sunset was at Blue Max in Burnsville. It isn't on display though, so you gotta ask them to grab you one from the back. ~$12.50, limit one.

    Yes, sorry. What I meant is that it's on there, so eventually retail will get some.

    Thought the coffee was more pronounced, roasted and thicker, but i agree the brews description look to be the same.

    Birthday Bomb is brewed with house made caramel that they cooked up right in the brewery.

    Not sure if this has been noted yet or if it should be in a new post, but Fair State will be canning Roselle soon. Will be year round availability.

    F44 had a TON of regular and birthday Bomb. They had a limit but I'm not sure what it was because I only got a couple. They were out of Cassian.

    I heard it should be releasing in the next week or two and yes, it will be very limited.
