Sadly not as good as 2016, which was not as good as 2015. This has an odd flavor profile and nose. Hoping my other bottles are better.

Super smooth, complex, boozy, chocolatey, and delicious. Left it a bit warmer than usual and that allows the flavors I love to shine right away.

Very dark, lots of dark chocolate and sweetness. I think this one was best fresh.

Mmmm. Welcome back my old friend. This is the BC I fell in love with but haven’t had since 2014. Dark, malty, bourbony booziness. Yum

Tons of dark chocolate, malt, and bourbon goodness. Decadent and rich.

Drank Willettized Coffee Stout by Lagunitas Brewing Company (2020)March 16th, 2021
2022-12-26
Held up well. Plenty of coffee and barrel, though seems like very little carbonation.
2021-03-16
Really roasty and whiskey is well pronounced. Dark chocolate flavors also present.

Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2018-02-26)February 28th, 2021
2020-05-05
This hasn’t lost much of anything, save a little vanilla.
2020-04-12
Don’t taste any coffee on this one any longer. The 2019 I had earlier was much better.
2018-03-30
Good this year, though I’m less tolerant each year of the bitterness. If they reduced that, it would likely still be in my top 5.
Drank 16 oz of Eclipse - Barrel Cuvée by FiftyFifty Brewing Co. (2020-11-18)February 26th, 2021
2021-02-26
Been years since I’ve had an Eclipse and sadly, the bitterness factor hasn’t changed. I get a lot of dark chocolate and bourbon, but the lingering bitterness just makes it less enjoyable.
Drank 16 oz of Abuse of Powder - Cashmere by Destination Unknown Beer Company (2020-11-12)February 24th, 2021
2021-11-07
Better than I remember. Have to get more of this.
2021-02-24
Very light, nice flavor. Would buy again.

Tasted very different from fresh and has lost a little something. The base is shining through the blueberry and almond.

Drank 12 oz of Panther Cub by Founders Brewing (2021-01-28)February 19th, 2021
2022-03-24
Nice flavor up front, but the sweetness fades into bitterness. Very thin. Wouldn’t buy again.
2021-02-19
The only thing that says porter to me is that it’s thin. Besides that, it’s got many things I love in a barrel aged stout. While I like Underground Mountain Brown better (as a BA stout alt), this is one of the best porters I’ve had.

Drank 12 oz of KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge (2020) by Founders Brewing (2020-10-14)February 12th, 2021
2022-04-21
Lots of dark chocolate and roasty malt with a hint of sweetness from the maple and booziness from the barrel.
2020-10-31
Founders knocked it out of the park with this one. Loads of chocolate, very rich, no bitterness. Only a few sips in, but looking forward to seeing how it changes with some warmth.
