I'm in a similar boat. My girlfriend prefers cider to wine or beer. So I've been trying to find ciders that are actually interesting. Which is tough in Alabama. I imagine it'd be easier in more populous areas.

Crispin does some OK work. They put out a variety of inventive ciders (one with sake yeast and rice, one with molasses and an Irish stout yeast, one with a Trappist ale yeast strain), but the enjoyability of them is hit or miss.

My favorite cider I've ever had was a Woodchuck Private Reserve seasonal release: Belgian White. It's brewed with a witbier yeast strain; delicious stuff. Woodchuck just put out a Bourbon barrel-aged cider, too. I haven't tried that yet, but I will.

I've been on a Red Hook kick.

Just picked up a bottle of BBQ. Never had it before.

Where did you find a bottle of BBQ off the shelf? It hasn't been released in a year.

Having Mother's Uber Pils right now. Good stuff, very earthy tasting hops.

Gifted from a friend who knows I love Boulevard products. Poor wording in last post.

Picked up a 4 pack of Bourbon County Stout over the weekend, looking forward to trying it after the reviews on here. It was a little more pricey than I expected, but I hope it's worth it.

They also have the 22oz Bourbon County Coffee Stout, but I deferred wanting to try the regular first. It's limited to one per customer.

They also carry Night Stalker which I haven't heard mentioned on here. Apparently it's the Bourbon County Stout before they put it in the Bourbon Barrels. Forgive my ignorance on this one. :)

Go buy the Coffee - very hard to come by. Hell, I'll buy it from you, if you don't want it... :)

Any of the flavored varieties of Bourbon County are HIGHLY sought after. Buy them up.

I do have multiple bottles from before they changed the name. Multiple Parabolas too!

I'm going to cry.

I dropped $30 on the 4 pack and the Coffee stout was $24.99 per 22 ounce bottle. Not sure if that's price gauging or not, but I was already $60 plus in on two six packs of Schafly (coffee and oatmeal) and the Bourbon county.

Sometimes you gotta go back to your roots. Miller High Life.

Don't cry. I actually had just started collecting bottles the last year or two before the name changed, and maybe just the last year. I'd have to look at the boxes.

We should just do a tasting of some kind. I'd be happy to bring something!

I'm irritated.

Didn't realize that Love Potion No. 2 had already been released. Went to my local liquor palace and they were sold out. Won't be getting more until January.

I did pick up some Tank 7, a bottle of Saison-Brett, a bottle of Collaboration No. 3 and a bottle of Nommo Dubbel.

Merry Christmas to me.
