straight cash homey wrote:i'd like to formally apologize to both DFH and SN. my initial review was hasty and conducted in the wrong environment. i was so excited that i found this beer that i opened it right when i got home from the store and didn't let the beer come to the proper temperature. i drank the first half as soon as i got home at fridge temps, then i made dinner for an hour or so and returned to the second half. the complex beer hiding behind a big bland beer has gone. letting it come closer to room temp combined the flavors and melded the complexity, plus it lost almost all its carbonation and became a little port like. this is a great beer when served at the proper temp. i get licorice, sasparilla, not rootbeer, sasparilla, and more alcohol in the nose as it warmed up. too bad its gone, gonna have to go get some more tomorrow, also the bottle didn't register at the check out stand and the checker asked me what it cost and i could have said anything, but lying is wrong so i said, i think it was $2.99.
Are you saying that you picked one up for $2.99? Shenanigans or no, that's a great deal.
