Cellars in White Bear Lake isn't far from you and that is considered a pretty good beer selection store.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostHaving a clear conscience just means you have a bad memory or you had a boring weekend.

Re: EMERGENCY - I'm drinking and the old drinking thread is closed!
Lucked into a bottle of 2015 Bourbon County Rare today...
Spendy but now I'm content. Probably will have buyers remorse at some point.
Anyone familiar with the Heaven's Hill Whisky that provided the barrels? Can't say I've heard of it, but I'm not familiar with much A-list whisky.It's never too early to start the Pre-game festivities

Heaven hill is good. They also make Elijah Craig among others. Typically higher in wheat than rye.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

And just hope the Rare didn't turn sour like most of the BCS beers did last year. I haven't HEARD of the Rare being infected, but it's very possible it was.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostNever really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

LUCKY! I was 1 for 3 on my bottles (all regular BCS) for them being good.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View Post
Edit: they were infected again this year, but it was caught before release, hence the lack of volume compared to years' past. Heard something like a tenth of distribution, per a local distributor. Yes, people were fired.Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

Re: EMERGENCY - I'm drinking and the old drinking thread is closed!
My two stores got none. Had to trade for mine. Their distributor felt horrible. Had to tell dozens of stores, "Yep, no BCS this year. Period."Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View Post
Flagship beer, and screwed it up two years in a row. What in the hell are you doing over there?
That being said, Abyss and variants soon to hit the stores. Yum. And Surly BA Darkness in the next month or two.Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

Re: EMERGENCY - I'm drinking and the old drinking thread is closed!
Um, when you ruin a flagship beer, dumping (reportedly) a ton of beer? Heads are gonna roll. 2nd year in a row. They just caught it in time this year. BBDL is still owed $70 in refunds from last year. Just sayin'.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostNever really developed a taste for tequila.

Re: EMERGENCY - I'm drinking and the old drinking thread is closed!
I had 5. They still haven't paid me back. I finally got a response from them today, but will wait until I have a clearer head before responding. I will never buy another beer from them, but I really want that **** $70 check.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostHaving a clear conscience just means you have a bad memory or you had a boring weekend.

I dunno. Batches at work are scrapped at work a number of times a year. It happens.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

Re: EMERGENCY - I'm drinking and the old drinking thread is closed!
I know one distributor got 115~ cases last year, plus some cases of variants, and this year he got no variants and less than 10 cases, due to the problem. That's not right.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostNever really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable.

Yeah, but it happens. Who are you going to fire? The brewmaster? The floor staff?Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1
