Is it one of if not the best beers I've ever had...yep. But, I've got to tell you that on many levels, it's 'jumped the shark' for me. Started out at $11, then $12, then $13 and this year....$17.00 a bomber. Oh, and after standing in line at the brewery for 45 mins they'd only sell me six. Just not going to fight the hipster dudes for a few bottles of this (IMHO) rather overpriced beer. When I can buy a fifth of decent bourbon for about what a bomber of beer costs, you have to start asking the 'is it worth it' question.
I may try to get more (in the past I've bought a couple cases...at least) but honestly I may not. I'm more interested in some of the other Imperial Stout's out there. Ninkasi has one that's casked, lots of other guys are making interesting imperial stouts. There's more out there, and I'm looking.
I remember when I could find this sitting on the shelves of a local liquor store for weeks. Not anymore. I'll get it on tap this weekend perhaps, but I wanted a couple bottles to age.
Yep, it has definitely gained in popularity. I spoke with the brewery and they said there are plans to increase production. We will see how it goes next year.
