You know that it's only $20?! That's some pretty high price gouging, I just popped one of my bottles on Friday at a friends birthday party. It was so delicious and chocolatey, we took scoops of espresso gelato and made Hunahpu's floats...

Rare Beer + Gelato = Ballin'

It is quite tasty. How would you compare it to BCS or KBS, I've not yet drank my bottles of those so I'm in the dark

Lunch time beer mission. Lot of this beer at Whole Foods bowery.

Should i let this one age for a while? Or drink now? Same question for all imperial stouts. Better to let them age?

It's drinking perfect right now, very vanilla and very tasty. Not as good as Bourbon County, but tasty none the less...

11? I pad $13.99 for one there on Sunday. Was it mis-labeled or did they reduce the price?

I dunno. But i will be interested to see if it is twice as good as Ten Fidy (since it costs more than twice the price).

Come on T... The only place you could get it was direct from Cigar City in Tampa this year. If you can find it at that price I'd be more than happy to buy it and resell it all to him and several others who are buying them up. Hell, I've seen it for even more than $40. That price includes tax as well and is exactly what I'm paying for it.

See above. Also, if he's not interested, I sure as hell am!
