I picked up some Aventinus today thinking it was their ice bock. Turns out they are just stocking the normal version. I'm a bit disappointed, where else can you get a 12% beer for under 3 bucks. Any word on if it will be back again?

I think some sales (in the States, not sure about here) included an offer to get the glass as referenced below. Don't know if we can get it up in Cda. http://estore.samueladams.com/product_details.aspx?item_guid=41cced6c-a36e-4621-b421-ec1e8e2f88e4 I know with last year's lottery, winners could get...

All I can add is get used to it. With governments holding rates near zero it is bound to create lots of inflation.

OK I dipped into one just now. Couldn't wait until properly chilled. From what I understand IPAs were developed to travel from England to India and not spoil so they should at least be OK at room temperature. I'm excited and dissapointed at the same time. Hop aroma got me all excited. Mouth feel we...
