Seems like an obvious add...



It’s all a conspiracy between the brewer, importer, retailers and the powers that be. If it were listed as one beer, I know I wouldn’t have bothered buying it ten times. It’s a pretty good beer, but not $13/12oz good. Think about it, if every beer rater only buys one bottle and not 10, there will be a lot still sitting on the shelves (not that there isn’t anyway)...shocked

I dont have a link to the brewdog discussion, however i can assure you having had most of them that they make enough difference in taste in aroma alone to validate a different entry. Whats more is they try thier best(though it sometimes isnt completly clear) to make it clear what batch of beer it is on the label.

With this it just seems we’ve been told there is going to be one barrel of the shit stout in one bar.

Im hoping the bar owner does a freeby night so uz cant rate it stupidly highyl againevil grin

I knew it! We can defeat their nefarious plan by having ten people each buy a bottle and sharing it around. Sure we’ll end up trying to rate ten imperial stouts in one oz samples. That’ll be tricky, but all that matters is we get more ratings! excited

OK. Who is going to re-enter the beer into the database so I can put in my rating? 11/10/2009 9:37:38 PM

Not me, but I hope it comes back. This one had even more of the coffee in it, and it was really damn tasty.

How much was a glass? How big a pour? How big was the keg? How quickly did it blow?


I wish I could’ve gone. . . I can practically taste it right now.
