ChiefsPlanet - Food and Drink 50 Beers to Try Before You Die

'15's? Not really and the ones that are would be buyer beware unless its a special release from a reputable bottle shop. '16's will likely be around for a bit.

Yeah, I meant the '16's in the pic.

So what's the deal with these Bourbon County Stouts? I love bourbon itself. What's the ABV on these and cost? What's the taste really like? How ****ing good is this shit?!

As far as Schlafly, their Bourbon Barrel Aged Stout. More importantly, if Crown Valley's Imperial Pumpkin Smash is still around, that's my true Missouri love.

Holy shit dude. That's like the jackpot based on you liking this shit.

Is the manager Trevor? He's a good dude.

14.5% abv, retail $9.99-$19.99. 16.9 oz bottles. Flavors can include chocolate, vanilla, caramel. Nose can include all that plus charred oak and smoke. Flavors can change as it ages. It's pretty much the benchmark of bourbon barrel aged stouts, imo.

Yeah, I was originally worried there wouldn't be enough craft beer around here, just to find out it's apparently where Goose Island hides its extra cases of BCS. :drool:

Not sure, but the guy I spoke with this morning called back and said I could come back for a case or however much I want..... that pic would run about $520. :hmmm:

Their reserve stuff is outstandng. The regular Dragon's Milk seems to be a bit inconsistent, but very good.

Drank a lot of that while in Grand Rapids last summer. My cousin and now uncle works for the distributor that distributes Founders, New Holland, Brewery Vivant, and a ton of other beers in the GR area. They get a huge discount and of course tons of samples.

Note, this actually started as an argument over the price of Remy Martin, but this liquor store near me is notorious for charging up to $200 a bottle for Bourbon County variants such as coffee.

LMAO I thought about this post as soon as I read it this morning.

CHICAGO -- Chicago police are looking for a man who shot and wounded a liquor store clerk in the city's Wicker Park neighborhood.
A man walked into the liquor store at Division and Damen just before 10:30 p.m. Monday, and got into an argument with the store clerk.
The argument between the two then spilled outside, and the man shot the clerk in the leg, and then ran away.
