This is an impressive list to me! Lots of diversity, lots of new offerings to keep it interesting and the return of some of the better beers from past releases. Most importantly.......4D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Haha wow that's a very high ABV average for a Spring release. Nine beers at 8% or more and nothing under 6% (essentially). Looking forward to the HopWired and 4D especially.

Wow I'm excited for the 4D, BA and RateBeer have solid 100's. Usually one of the two drops a bit...

If the Kuhnhenn actually shows, I'll be buying it by the gross.

What does "aged" mean on the 4D?

This isn't the Bourbon Barrel Aged version (obviously). Talked to Bret Kuhnhenn at the brewery last May when we found out about this first hand. He's been trying to get this to us for a little while now.
