Where to begin? How about here -- Brooklyn Monster is available in bottles! Eliz surprised me with a six pack last month. This near-mythic barley wine is normally available only in good beer bars and then only occasionally. It was not available for tasting when I toured the Brooklyn brewery a few years ago, though the folks there did point my friends and I to a nearby pub that had it. Barley wines are pretty uncommon, and good ones even rarer, but, Brooklyn Monster is a terrific one - very, very strong, very smooth. Buy a six pack, look for it on tap, and be prepared!
