This is really holding up very well. Lots of barrel, smooth/silky mouthfeel, and lots of chocolate and roasted malt.

Drank 12 oz of Parabola by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2017)April 20th, 2017
2017-12-22
Better than when I had it fresh this year. Still not as good as last year when they didn't contract brew.
2017-04-20
Very boozy. Nice roasted malt. A little on the hoppy side. Previous years were better, maybe due to this year's contract brew by Boulevard.

2017-04-15

Something’s not quite right about this one. Not infected, but it’s like all the malt dropped out and all that’s left is the booze. Weird...
2018-11-09
Still great after 3 years. Better than 2016/2017. More molasses; newer ones are thinner.
2018-01-22
Tasting great after 2 years of aging. Happy Birthday to me!
2016-12-01
Really great aged even only 1 year.
Drank 12 oz of Blackboard Series Cream Ale with Cold Brew Coffee by Victory Brewing (2017)April 8th, 2017
2017-04-08
Not bad, not great. Get the cream, don't get much coffee...just residual bitterness from coffee.

Vertical 2020 - world class beer
2019-09-29
Still tastes amazing after all these years. Wow!
2018-02-04
Held up extremely well still very boozy, great flavor and unlike 2015+ BCS, not thin.
2017-04-06
Amazing. Tastes almost like the regular from those days, but smoother. Wish I bought the last one on the shelf too!
Drank 22 oz of Imperial Mexican Biscotti Cake Break by Westbrook Brewing / Evil Twin (2016)April 6th, 2017

Much better than either beer by itself. Actually enjoyed this.
Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2016-02-12)April 5th, 2017
2024-02-18
Lots of coffee and dark chocolate. Definitely taste the age, but still enjoyable.
2022-11-30
Definitely taste the age. Still tons of coffee. Best fresh.
2020-05-04
This was their off year. I will say while it wasn’t good overall, it seems to have held up to where it was back then. Still best fresh.
2020-01-18
Either this was the off year or this didn’t hold up well. Flavors aren’t right. Maybe it will improve as it warms.
2018-04-16
2 years later, it still hasn't improved much.
2018-01-06
Slightly better than it was when fresh, but still not up to the standards of other years.
2017-04-05
It now has a year on it and hasn't improved much. This year's is fantastic; 2016 still is not.
2016-09-08
Still not any better. I think this year's batch will need 2-3 years before it tastes decent.
Drank 12 oz of Hoegaarden by Brouwerij van Hoegaarden (2017)April 4th, 2017

Drank 12 oz of Callipygian by Avery Brewing Company (2016-04-25)April 1st, 2017
2016-11-01
Very unique. Raisiny sweetness, toasty chocolatey maltiness, very boozy, intense flavor...interesting. Only negative is slight bitterness.
Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2017)April 1st, 2017
2017-04-01
KBSis back! Last year was not good, but this year is back to their standards. Will pop one of last year's this weekend to see if it's improved at all with some age.
Drank 12 oz of Cassian Sunset by Central Waters Brewing Company (2016)March 18th, 2017
2021-01-19
Can definitely taste the age on it. Getting chocolate, coffee and cinnamon notes. Dark chocolate lingers long afterwards.
2020-05-10
This has lost a lot of its original character in 4 years. A bit of coffee, malt and a subtle cinnamon finish. Will have to try a 2018 for comparison.
2016-10-25
Yum
