Ry, it was a bomber, though. That's hardly your normal little 12 oz bottle.

I was drunk after. It was 1.5 pint (not sure how many ounces that is)

Where are they all? I know of:

Maumee Bay- Downtown Toledo
Great Lakes- West Cleveland

I'm gonna post this over on the Beer Snob thread.

Yeah honestly for a 10ish% beer it doesn't really taste like it. Gets you really buzzed after 3. Tastes pretty good too. Victory's a really solid brew.

Drinking some Arrogant Bastard Ale my parents got me when they moved me into Tucson. Love this stuff.

Well I will try and find the Victory and I have also wanted to try Arrogant Bastard but I have never seen it before.

Arrogant Bastard is pretty tough to find, where do you live?

Victory Hop Devil = GOAT.

I'm going to give this Creme Brulee beer a try this weekend. If it doesn't live up to my expectations I'm banning every single one of you.

Justin, I know for a fact they have it at Jungle Jim's. Dilly Cafe, in Mariemont, should have it too. I'm not to familiar with beer stores around Hyde Park. The Party Source in Newport/Bellevue Ky should have it too.

I love Hop Devil too. The Wife was going to pick some up tonight at Krogers, but they didn't have any. She ended up getting Bells Two Hearted instead. (Which is even better IMO)

30 miles south of the lake. I live out in the boonies. Norwalk is the place I go for most of my booze. I would guess there are about 5 people on the site that knows where Norwalk is. I may try and look for a website to see if I can find any places that carry it.

I've been there before. I guess it's better than living near Plymouth.

I hear North Fitchville is the place to be for all your entertainment purposes.

For an amazing 10%, try Cerberus from Thirsty Dog.

I've found exactly two bottles in the last year. I was at The Andersons in Dublin a couple weeks ago, and the beer/wine guy saw me looking around and asked if I was looking for something specific. I mentioned it, and he said, "There might be one single bottle in the back, but I'll have to check." He came back with two bottles, one of which had a nice layer of dust on it.

One was gone a day later, and I haven't touched a beer since. That's some strong stuff and it'll last you a little while as well....I've got GLBC Holy Moses waiting for me and a couple of other things, plus that one bottle of Cerberus.

Giant Eagle's aren't everywhere I guess is my point. They have them at BevMo out here in 'Zona. Then again, that place has a ridiculous beer selection.

Yeah, there was a Giant Eagle about 15 minutes from me but it didn't survive.

I've never once had a beer and said "wow, that is tasty".

Some Giant Eagles don't have it, I've noticed. I live in North Akron, and the Giant Eagle on Howe Avenue just started getting it, but one just up in Cuyahoga Falls has had it for years.

It's hit or miss, it seems.
