My local post exchange carries these and some other of the lower end A.F. I googled, but we all know how that goes.

What is your guys consensus on them?

Brick House, made by J.C. Neumann. They also make Diamond Crown.

They are not a cigar that will make you WOW, but they are very nice and well made. I enjoyed the ones I smoked.

I found them to walk the fine line between yard gar and dog rocket... If you can get em got a buck, probably still dont...

Perfect B&M cigar.

Anytime I'm in a shpo, I try to support and buy something -- often Brickhouse is what I end up purchasing. Best B&M value -- decent enough smoke and very consistent. BH Maddie is a pleasant surprise

Problem for me was the price point (online price, no shpo for me)......... other cigars I thought were better could be had for said coin.

Dstieger’s shpo pricing/buying advice is spot on.

Sweet. Thanks guys. I may score a couple. The exchange pricing is pretty good, which frankly made me nervous. LOL.

Greatly appreciated.

I've had both the Mighty Mighty Natural and Maduro. Both were solid sticks. I did like the Maduro more.

No........I don’t think so.

They are not good ROTT imho (online purchase)

They improve a lot over time.......but as noted, fell off the radar for me cause better cigars for same coin, and often need no rest.

The above opinions are based from past experiences (5+ years ago??), so may not be applicable today.

And, I’m guessing shpo versions might have some time on them in many instances.

More of the same. Good but didn't blow me away. One was B&M and other was PIB so age unknown. Liked the maduro better

In the last 3 to 4 years they are in my rotation when I get ready to buy. Consistent, well constructed, wrapper always excellent no imperfections or tear spots.

good buy.

Smoked a couple of robustos several years ago - not sure how long they sat around. Not impressed and never bought any more. Might try a maduro sometime if the price is right.

Recall these being kinda dull. Not bad, not great, just kind of... there. Construction was flawless, I'd dare say a cut above some other cigars in the same price range, but again, kinda unremarkable. That was quite some time ago though, so the blend has likely changed

Not bad, not a mind blower. Good for fishing or handouts.

It's not something I buy to take home and toss in the humidor.

But I'll smoke it there if I'm killing time. Never had a bad one, and they're $6 for a corona at my shpo.

A lower-end budget-blend "meh"-tasting little CORONA for $6!

Online I was getting 5-nation-blend, sublime-tasting, Davidoff-rolled Chief Cool Arrow 8x60 monster-size sticks that smelled like orange chocolate heaven for for $4.50 each (or 6.5x50 for $4.25 each), plus with each gorgeous-looking box, a free hat and a lighter too, and free shipping.

Thanks for reminding me why I don't go to B&Ms much anymore!

Do you mind if we call you Chief Cool Arrow ?
