Consumption History
When
Drank 750 ml of Black Tuesday by The Bruery (2013-09-13)December 25th, 2016
2017-04-30
Still pretty hot, surprisingly, but has held up well. A hell of a big first sip.
2016-12-25
Marshall drank this one in San Diego.

Big, boozy, that same BT that we know and love. Great to share with a big group.
2013-11-30
Huge and in your face with the bourbon, the barrel, and lots of malty coffee and roasted chocolate flavors. A slow sipper with a lite heat, and delicious. Lives up to the reputation.
Drank 750 ml of 10 Commandments by The Lost Abbey (2009)December 21st, 2016
2016-12-21
Still weird, and not so good. Too sweet up front followed by too herby on the backend. Oh well.
2013-07-04
Weird! Not bad but... Weird. Best description.
Drank 650 ml of Imperial Eclipse Stout - Elijah Craig (12 Year) by FiftyFifty Brewing Co. (2012)December 20th, 2016
2016-12-20
Huge chocolate, fudge, some bourbon character but without the heat. Has aged amazingly, tasting great.
Drank 12 oz of Doggie Claws by Hair of the Dog Brewing Company (2012)December 20th, 2016
2016-12-20
A biscuit like nose, pretty mild on the palate, barleywine up front with more bread as it progresses. Not great.
2013-12-06
Tons of yeast, swirling clouds of it, prevalent in the nose as well, no booze but some nice sweetness on the palate, not bad but not stellar.
Drank 12 oz of Oude Freakcake by Crux Fermentation Project (2013-11-29)December 20th, 2016
2016-12-20
17% fruity, 37% funk, but the actual taste is mild, with a hint of bitterness and slight sediment. Overall, I am displeased. I suffer.
Drank 12 oz of Bourbon County Brand Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2012-07-21)December 18th, 2016
2016-12-18
Amazing nose (sweet, malty), thick and sumptuous on the palate, but a really balanced profile, plus a bit of heat on the backend. Oxidation barely noticeable for a 2012 bottle; great stuff.
Drank 650 ml of The Abyss by Deschutes Brewery (2012)December 3rd, 2016
2016-12-03
The most oxidated flavor of the beers tasted, pretty good, hints of mint in the finish, not bad but probably past its prime.
Drank 375 ml of The Angel's Share - Bourbon Barrel Aged by The Lost Abbey (2013)December 3rd, 2016
2016-12-03
Only had a quick taste, but great barrel flavor, barely any oxidation, good malt balance. Tasty.
Drank 500 ml of Imperial Eclipse Stout - Elijah Craig (20 Year) by FiftyFifty Brewing Co. (2011)December 3rd, 2016
2016-12-03
Big, little oxidation, a little booze, good malt presence.
Drank 750 ml of Melange No. 3 by The Bruery (2012)December 3rd, 2016
2016-12-03
Tons of malt, almost no oxidation, that Bruery character in spades. Not bad but man, big.
2016-08-21
Huge, malt forward, lots of heat going down. Not bad but not sure age has done much for it.
Drank 650 ml of Parabola by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2014)December 3rd, 2016
2017-08-19
The bottle I didn't realize I had! Was great, a nice midpoint age-wise, tasting great with a bit more chocolate and malt character.
2016-12-03
The best of the evening, delicious as always.
2014-04-09
Great, not much booze at all with lots of coffee and some caramel this time as we'll. Delicous.
Drank 750 ml of Speedway Stout - Mokasida by AleSmith Brewing Company (2016)November 24th, 2016
2016-11-24
Drank at middling temperature, coffee and malt forward with very little booziness. Smells sweeter than it tastes, which is good.
Drank 750 ml of Ensorcelled by The Rare Barrel (2015-01-28)September 3rd, 2016
2017-11-05
Maybe a tad more fruit, definitely sharper on the palate (a bit more carbonated than the '14?). Delicious.
2016-09-03
Dark, delicious, more fruit came out as it warmed, a great sipper. Really enjoyed even when inappropriately paired with Thai food ;-)

Tasting great; nice funk on the finish, but pleasantly sweet and bitter up front.
