Damn there's no way my beer budget is going to stretch nearly as far as I will want it too for this release

Some great looking stuff on here....so glad the Rochefort 10 is back, must stock up. And glad to see the Smuttynose on here. Interestingly, a solid mix of reasonably priced vs overly priced stuff this time around. Only a couple on there that I would completely skip over due to price.

If that retail price for Rodenbach Vintage is correct then that is an absolute steal.

I had tried the 2007 which Sammy brought in years ago. Very good.

Of course we're presently counting eggs not seeing chickens.

I wonder if this will be the 2010 or 2011 or 2012 which I would like to try
2007 was great.
