After what seemed like forever, we finally got Bell's Batch 9000. Everyone has been looking forward to this one. As Bell's seems to do on a regular basis, they are giving the customer what they asked for with this 12.7%ABV, huge, rich Imperial Stout. In the press release for this, Larry Bell says, "Remember 7000? Well that was kind of weak, so we are trumping up that recipe to make something bold. You want something for the cellar? You got it." Bell's has quite an impressive stable of Stouts and have proven they know what they're doing with greats like Expedition, Kalamazoo and the recent Rye Stout release. Another one for the cellar.
We hate to do this, but we only received 2 cases, so we will be limiting purchases to 3 bottles per person. We have been getting an avalanche of calls for it and want to make sure everyone gets to try it. Thanks for understanding.

frank anymore dreadnaught coming ur way?....thanks
Nothing imminent, but we're working on it. We put in a special request for that since it's the only 22oz that they make year-round. The rest of their full-time brews are in 6-packs.
Bought some in south mpls.
Not blown away.
B- at best
This stuff does need about 2 years in the closet to be drinkable, IMO.
used to buy a lot of bells brews.. hardly ever drink them anymore..no interest in this one..bells is not the brewery it once was IMO
