If I head to Atlanta around July, do you think I could find some Trop + other beers? Thinking of making a trip during the Phillies series early July...

Did you just use the word "verily" in your description?

For sure. It's becoming more and more readily available. Cans are delivered either on Thursdays or Fridays and last until end of day Friday usually. Kegs for growler fill at my local shop usually last a week.

Second/last beer of the day is a Divine Reserve 15 that Dire Wolf gave me in a BX recently. Not a lot going on, but solid.

I have a few in the cellar, wasn't a huge fan of it fresh so was hoping a year or so would help. Doesn't seem like it.

Indeed. Silky smooth. It is nice to see what a year of age does for it. Very enjoyable.

Me either.

It is good, but nothing special IMO. Like Wolf said, it is smooth and not boozy for a high ABV stout.

Went to a Bday party/small share. These were pretty decent. Mix of 2012s and 2013s. Four Roses > Elijah 12s, in my unexpert opinion.

FBD a couple home brews. My wife finally got the Avery 22nd anniversary keg to kick so oak aged yeti will be on mañana.

I enjoy those Eclipse ba stouts but they are awfully proud of em. They go for like $32 a bottle here. If anyone wants any there are several stores here that have a bunch dating from 2012 to recent batches.
