Re: Russian Imperial Stout coming out
The only thing I can think of is they're using propeller as a bench mark? But revolution is on the low side of an ris abv, and frankly not that great a beer... Haha. Compare Jeff's to a REAL ris and $6 is a great deal.

It'll probably be a year before I crack mine.

Re: Russian Imperial Stout coming out
I didn't think any of the BA RIS made it to town that night I did the pickup. If it did, I missed out too! 
GAM has been to the source since then, so he might have got it then.

It's going to be a good while yet before the BBL aged RIS comes out.chalmers wrote:I didn't think any of the BA RIS made it to town that night I did the pickup. If it did, I missed out too!

I had a regular RIS the night before last and it was hoppy as balls delicious black goodness, like a really hoppy American Imperial Stout. It will cellar really well too, I'm sure.

Re: Russian Imperial Stout coming out
Sorry Keith. I didn't realize there was a BA in front of that line. Like Nash said it will be awhile!

Re: Russian Imperial Stout coming out
Sorry, I was/am confused. I was hoping for 4 BA (Barrel Aged) RIS. I think you were talking about BA (Bad Apple) RIS.
I am good on the non-Barrel Aged front, I'm waiting to put Jeff's wood in my mouth.

I stayed away. Was itching to say something though 
It had to be a deliberate joke.
