They are very, very good. But if I remember correctly, almost 11%. I told Norm and a few others a story about the first time I tried these. I was sitting in my office on the computer, drank about 3 of them when my wife came in to talk to me.

All I remember her saying is, "what the hell is wrong with you":drooling:

See early pages of this thread for previous conversation about the Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout. New for this year- it's now being sold in 4-packs instead of 6-packs, at least here in NYC. Picked up a 4 pack last night. Pretty good this year.

I'm seeing more and more 4 packs. Is this like the legend about some guy who worked at a shampoo company suggesting they add "repeat" to the directions and they doubled their sales? I'm thinking that someone thought, "Hey, 4 packs are in!" and now we get 2/3 of what we used to.

It's not a bad move, IMO- they lowered the price on the 4 pack so you're paying less. Last year a 6 pack put me out bout $13, and now the 4 pack is about $8.50, so there was no net gain in price per bottle.

ABV on it this year is now 10%, fyi...
