When
Drank 12 oz of KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa by Founders Brewing (2021-09-02)September 23rd, 2023
2023-09-23
Strong cinnamon and dark chocolate.
2021-09-26
Seems a bit thin for a KBS. The cinnamon is a bit too strong, and translates into bitterness that lingers on the palate. Not really getting the cocoa either. Lastly, only a subtle hint of barrel.
Drank 12 oz of Lator Gator by Crooked Stave Artisan Beer ProjectSeptember 19th, 2023
2023-09-19
Was good, but presented as a RIS with a bit too much going on.
Drank 12 oz of Blot Out The Sun- Barrel Aged by Three Floyds Brewing (2022)September 3rd, 2023
2023-09-03
It’s good, but has a strange flavor profile that I don’t love. The heat from the barrel comes on strong at the end and lingers. Not one I’d buy again.
Drank 16 oz of Wandering Into the Fog by Abomination BrewingAugust 31st, 2023
2023-08-31
Decent flavor and hazy but a little too bitter.
2023-08-27
Decent flavor but overwhelming bitterness.
2023-08-12
Good but a little too much grapefruit and accompanying bitterness.

Drank 22 oz of Dark Lord 2017 by Three Floyds Brewing (2017)July 27th, 2023
2023-07-27
Really good
Drank 12 oz of Pecans in Paradise by Prairie Artisan Ales (2023-06-02)July 12th, 2023
2023-07-12
This is probably one of the best beers I’ve had from Prairie. The pecan flavor is pronounced in a good way. Then you get sweet flavors of coconut and vanilla, followed by booziness from the barrel. Very well balanced.
Drank 12 oz of 120 Minute IPA Aged in Utopias Barrels by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery (2023)July 9th, 2023
2024-02-15
Really great depth of flavor on this and the Utopias barrel definitely comes through. Cant wait to see how this transforms over time.
2023-07-09
This is really good. Great flavor, lots of booziness, hint of sweetness, not too much bitterness. Can’t wait to see how this ages.
Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2018-02-26)July 3rd, 2023
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 Bourbon County Brand Stout (2020) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2020-09-22)July 1st, 2023

With Phil in Colorado during steak night.

Not my favorite year, but crazy depth of flavor and very boozy.

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

Drank 16 oz of Bourbon County Brand Classic Cola Stout (2021) by Goose Island Beer Co. (2021-08-10)June 22nd, 2023
2024-12-08
Bourbon County Vertical 2024
2023-06-22
This has good much richer in intensity of flavor, and particularly the cola, which I felt was incredibly subtle when fresh. I still don’t think it’s worth $1 more than the base and it’s still not my favorite.
2022-06-26
Better than I remember when trying it fresh. The cola is still subtle, but it’s a nice variation on the base. I still do taste a bit of orange, but the finish differs from Midnight Orange, in that there’s no chocolate. Not my favorite, but still decent.

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.

2020-05-30
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
Drank 12 oz of Cassian Sunset by Central Waters Brewing Company (2018)June 3rd, 2023
2024-07-03
Showing its age, but the coffee and spices are still present.
2023-06-03
Maybe a bit past it’s prime, but still good. Getting a lot of chocolate. Flavors from the barrel are subtle, but the heat is detectable.
