From Larry Bennett at Brewery Ommegang:
Ommegeddon is going out all across the USA. All our distributors are receiving a limited release.
It has been served at a very few brewery events, and this is the newly evolved (oops, excuse me, intelligently designed) version. It has not yet appeared west of the Appalachian Mountains, south of Washington DC, or north of Boston. Or east of Cape Cod for that matter.
We are adding Ommegeddon to our line-up on a seasonal basis. This being the first season.
FYI, we have another new beer coming. We taste-tested the second pilot batch last week and expect to release it by October. There will be some limited availability at the brewery and at select beer fests before then.
Not to give it away but it involves chocolate malts, real Belgian chocolate, and has a sturdy body to it.
We'll do a preview tasting of this latest pilot batch this weekend at Begium Comes to Cooperstown.
Ummm... I'm stunned into silence. This sounds delicious. Belgian chocolate plus beer? YES!

Ommegang Double Chocolate Extra Export Stout?
Maybe not. Ommegeddon as a seasonal release leaves me wondering one thing: How many cases do I order for the store, and how many do I take home for myself?

Bare minimum. I'd want to try one to see how it is in this iteration from the one time I tried it at some fest I was at.

FYI, just as a follow-up. I was speaking to a couple last night who also attended the BCTC but they were fortunate enough to get tickets to the VIP session the night before. Besides the test batch of Chocolate Stout by Ommegang, they also had a Kreik that night. They said it was great and I have no doubts. So, maybe an Ommegang kreik someday?
