Midway Hawker Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I had my first one tonight... and it tasted incredibly awesome. I'm a very happy man... The label is slightly different this year, it had "red" trim all the way around the label. Very nice looking and very holiday-ish. http://www.sierranevada.com/beers/images/m-cebeerb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midway Hawker Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 This is the BEST beer in the world.. IMO.. The only thing that comes close that I've tried is Stone IPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I have a couple of 2005s stored in my basement. They should be in nice shape by now. It'll be interesting to compare an aged bottle to a fresh one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent... I tried a Costco on Gratiot but no luck. I have tried a bunch of party stores up in Port Huron but no luck there either. Hell I have no issues paying the duty to bring it in if I can find some. No worries there. You're great for helping me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bardan Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Great news, definitely one of my favorites! Hey DM, if you can't find any up there just make a quick trip back down here and we can do some Patron shots and send you home with a couple cases of Celebration Ale.

Midway Hawker Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 (edited) well, celebration is about out of season.. I've gone through 3 cases and have an unopened 4th case in the garage.. We will see how long I can wait before I open that last case.. Maybe I'll pick up one more before it's gone. I think BevMo still has some. Costco is all out, I checked.. Bring on the Bigfoot Ale 2007!!! Edited January 9, 2007 by Midway Hawker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangy Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 (edited) I'd say the Celebration was the second best seasonal beer I had this year. As good as the Celebration was, the best I had was Rogues Santas Private Reserve. Celebration did beat out Pyramids Snowcap, Samuel Smiths Winter Welcome and several others though IMO.

Digital Man Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I have a case and a half in the basement. It's $10.50 a 6-pack, so I have been taking it slow with them. I think I'll save a 6er or 2 for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
