I can understand maybe getting one bottle out of curiosity but buying three before even trying it? Crazy!

Or have you had it before?

it's the only time I've seen it, so I splurged. I hear it's not bad, just different.

Have you had this beer yet? Tastes a bit like hickory sticks. Really good though. I almost didn't try it because of a very negative review from a friend but the smokiness is actually pretty subtle.

People say it is offensively smokey, etc but I just didn't get that at all. Tasted like a good marzen that had a bit of a hickory stick/smokey taste at the end. Nothing more.

Honestly I thought it was really tame.

As in almost all things, leaf fan we will agree to disagree. Seriously though I thought it was overpowering. To each there own and why not.

Not as good as I hoped. Very hoppy, even for a Belgian. If you can get past that, it has a nice smooth finish, but like herpies, the hops remain. st. bernardus is still the best monk brew i have had.

I don't mind well hopped Belgians. Quite a few tripels are like that and Belgian IPAs are yummy too. I like hops in general so that's no surprise I guess. I've never had that one though.

Our release was delayed. I'm getting worried that it'll never come out.

Never seen that around before.

Now I want to drink scotch. Really wanted to avoid doing that before going to a stag and doe tonight, which means lots of beer drinking later. I'll let mrs schuter know my ensuing drunken behavior is all your fault.
