Need I say more? Probably THE BEST Beer I've ever been introduced to in my entire life! And I've been legally able to drink since 1986!

I walked into my bottle shop yesterday and there's the same "extremely limited" barrel-aged stout that's been sitting there since October. The shelf talker still brags about "only 500 cases produced" or whatever but I guess nobody wants to pay $25 for beer that tastes like every other bourbon barrel stout.

Beers like KBS and BCBS used to actually sell out - people would camp outside Binny's for that stuff. Now? I can walk into any decent shop and grab vintage 2020 BCBS off the shelf like it's a case of High Life. These breweries pump out so much "limited" beer that half of it sits on the warm store shelf long past the "drink by" date before anyone buys it.

The marketing of artificial scarcity is embarrassing at this point.

I'm tired of paying premium prices for "limited edition" beer that's less rare than Genny Ruby Red. Either make it genuinely hard to find or stop pretending your contact-brewed barrel-aged whatever is some elusive, exclusive treasure.

SweetWater Brewing in Atlanta turned up one morning to find three entire trailers of beer gone. Just poof. No alarms, no smashed gates, just tens of thousands of pints missing in action.

Among the stolen goods: their 420 Extra Pale Ale (seems fitting) and a haul worth over $100k. Two trailers were found emptied. One vanished completely, never to be seen again.

Anyone know of any other beer heists that are something like this? Or better… did anyone in Atlanta ever accidentally end up with 78,500 bonus beers?

Several years ago I bought a Dogfish Head 120 minute IPA, put it in a cool dark closet, then completely forgot about it.

Last week, my husband and I were at dinner and started talking about the imperial ales we were drinking which kicked off a whole beer convo. While looking up some things, a site we were on mentioned the 120 min IPA and I thought, “oh shit, I think we have one of those… somewhere.”

Well, today I found it. Turns out it’s a bit over 7yrs old - bought in spring 2018. I bought 2 at the time, drank one, liked it, then saved the other.

So whatchya think? Drink it or keep it going?

Update:

We drank it.

I made it through 4 good sized sips and that was enough for me.

We both agreed that there’s a heavy burnt caramel flavor and notes of baker’s chocolate. But what he called “dark sweetness,” I called, “medicinal syrup.”

My husband said, “it’s like if someone made a really dark version of a Belgian triple and mixed it with the crispy top of a creme brûlée,” where I thought it tasted like, “someone poured a cheap Pinot noir into a good beer and ruined them both, then let old pumpernickel bread dissolve in the alcohol.”

He’d definitely have it again so I’ll get more if I ever see them, but I’ll have it fresh instead. Anyway, it was fun to try this forgotten beer! Thanks for all your input!

The Shocktop logo looks like somebody who doesn't stop talking about having done one triathlon. He looks like the guy who laugh-reacts to a detailed post about a humanitarian rights issue on a different continent. He looks like somebody who would leave his wife and young kids to climb Mount Everest when the family already has two mortgages on their house. Also it tastes bad, the beer.

I randomly came across this Mexican Lager that Fiddlehead is selling in 8oz cans. I would love if more breweries started doing this with higher ABV beers, anyone else? Sometimes I want a DIPA but I don’t need 16 oz which is basically 3 servings of normal beer. Hoping it’s a trend that catches on.

With the gold label? I guess what I’d consider the original Michelob that’s discontinued.

Thanks! I don’t know a lot about beer.

Hi Beer Friends- Looking for a small town, cool weather option with a fantastic small brewery. If you were going on a solo trip, with these things in mind, where are you headed?

I recently took a vacation (beercation) in Bavaria. The whole trip was great, but my favorite stop was Bamberg. If you are interested in the specifics you can read about it on my blog, https://patspints.com/2025/06/27/bamberg-historic-land-of-lagers-part-1/

I'd be interested to hear from others who have visited Bamberg and Franconia in general. Its an amazing, somewhat underrated beer destinations in my opinion.

Consolidators. Saviors. Grim Reapers scything through once-vivid American dreams of true independence and harvesting “synergies” as they fall. Whatever you call them, they are roving these United States looking for craft breweries facing declining sales and rising rents to add to their holdings.

Earlier this week, Brewbound broke the news that Barrel One Collective — a portfolio of ~20 mostly New England-based breweries and brands including Harpoon, Long Trail, Smuttynose, and over a dozen others — was acquiring Greater Good Imperial Brewery in Worcester, Mass. The week before, Wilding Brands added Denver’s Station 26 Brewery to its stable. It became the 10th brand in a portfolio of breweries and adjacent businesses in the Rocky Mountain State, which is also where Left Hand Brewing Co. and Drydock Brewing Co. are building a “second shakeout” life raft.

This follows similar craft-on-craft roll-ups earlier this decade across the Pacific Northwest and California (e.g., Great Frontier Holdings, composed of Ninkasi Brewing, Wings & Arrow Brewing, Ashland Hard Seltzer, and Ecliptic Brewing), as well as North Carolina (see Made By The Water, which started with an acquisition of Asheville’s Catawba Brewing before sprawling across the Southeast). In regions where craft beer won its earliest converts, many formerly pioneering breweries are either rolling up, or getting rolled up themselves.

In response to changing beer consumption habits, Trappist brewery Chimay is offering three of its beers in cans for the first time. This launch coincides with the 175th anniversary of the Abbey of Notre-Dame de Scourmont, where Chimay has been brewed since 1862.
