Hit L.A. today too.Abyss just hit shelves here in Norcal. Picked up a bottle and will probably do a vertical tasting in the near future with the 2013 I have cellared.
See, this was my first year EVER waiting in line. Honestly, I got sick on Thanksgiving and was up all night anyways so I figured since I was up, might as well make something of it. I've have the original and Coffee stout, never the Coconut, Vanilla or Barleywine so I figured let's give it a go. With that said, I'm not sure, even if this stuff blows my mind, if I'll ever wait in line again. Although I guess you never know.
Glad to see I'm not the only one feeling a little burnt when it comes to "the hunt." For the amount of hysteria surrounding it, BCBS really isn't worth waiting in line for or wasting a day hunting it down at different distributors. Vanilla Rye didn't really make me lose my mind either. It's a great beer, don't get me wrong, but I honestly prefer 2013's Backyard Rye over the Vanilla. Not gonna be in search of a second bottle.
However, I took a trip up to my regular spot to pick up a 6'er of Space Dust today. Da God only got in regular BCBS, but says he very well might be getting a case of BCBCS in next week. Told me he has a bottle or two with my name on it if it comes in.
Either way, I'm just glad it's over at this point.
I had spoke w/ a manager at my local Wegmans prior to release of BCBS a to have a pack held for me
Since I worked today I asked my sister to pick it up
She sent me this pic asking if it was the right one
Told her that was it and asked if they had any of the variants and the cost
She said she was eating lunch in the cafe and would go back to the beer in 10 minutes :/
There was only 1 pack of barley wine left when she went back
And nothing was held for me by the manager...he was off today
Ideally would have got the coffee stout if I could but at least I got something
open it b
It's bomb! Nice sweet and roasty
can't wait to try this one.
