The price tag has scared me away every time I've seen it. Let us know how it is Tim.

Sorry Stu, but it's 11%

I'm intrigued.

From what I have read its more of a Belgium Imperial stout rather than a RIS. The fact that it can be aged 25 years is interesting. Makes me wonder if it is still VERY young, I might have to get another to age and drink one now.

I also came across it at my local B&M, and I got mixed reviews. It's a good beer, but for the price tag, I was told not to even consider it. It's funny, it says can be stored for up to 25 years. I'm going to pass on it, unless I hear from someone that it is a fantastic beer.

Well Ratebeer gave it a 96 and BA an A-, it can't be that bad. The reviews sound really good. As far as the price, it is all subjective. Ive paid more per oz. and hated it.

I hope to have a review of this up sometime soon.
