Consumption History
When
Drank 12 oz of Cherry Stout by Bell's Brewery, Inc. (2014-10-08)January 18th, 2015
2015-01-18
Lots of cherry, too much in fact, at first was wondering if the beer was soured, alas, not enough stout character to back up the amount of cherry in this one.
Drank 750 ml of Geriatric Hipster Club by The Bruery (2014-11-11)January 15th, 2015
2015-01-15
Smells very much like an old fashioned, very sweet with some citrus, definite yeast presence on the finish but they hit their target pretty nicely. Tasty.
Drank 750 ml of Sourrento by The Bruery (2014-11-05)January 8th, 2015
2016-01-09
Actually not terrible, but definitely a novelty beer, not sad it's the last one.
2015-01-08
Lots of vanilla in the nose and up front in the palate, then fades into basically a standard sour blonde. Didn't quite get what they were going for, but still not a bad beer, enjoyable.
Drank 375 ml of Framboise For A Cure by Russian River Brewing Company (2014-09-04)January 7th, 2015
2023-06-12
More body than the 2015 with a little less fruit, but definitely the better of the two.
2020-08-31
Not much fruit left but a very pleasantly tart and mellow framboise, with hints of sweetness coming through.
2015-06-26
Delicious as always, not too much raspberry left but still lots of citrus, and that perfect Russian River sour profile.
2015-03-05
Delicious, amazing color, great nose, lots of citrus and still a good bit of fruit there. Amazing beer.
2015-01-23
Still tasting amazing, plenty of fruit, best color of the batches tonight, if anything tasting a little more balanced now than it did fresh.
2014-11-16
Delicious, some lemon character, mild raspberry, great tang, a good start.
Drank 500 ml of Firestone 18 - Anniversary Ale by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2014)January 2nd, 2015
2015-01-02
Tons of malt in the nose, but balanced on the palate, some mild stout characteristics give way to more of an Double Double Barrel kind of profile. Tasty, and not hot in the slightest.
Drank 22 oz of Blue Gene by Revolution Brewing LLC (2014)January 2nd, 2015
2015-01-02
Weird, but good! Almost has a sour thing going on from the blueberry, but very mild, and it comes through nicely on the palate.
Drank 12 oz of Bourbon County Brand Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2013-11-08)January 2nd, 2015
2024-12-21
Wow tasted great. Still some heat after a few sips, no oxidation notes, tons of chocolate and coffee. Can't believe how well this one has held up.
2015-01-02
Tasting good, lots of chocolate and some oak char, feel like this may be better fresh (at least the 2014), but still damn delicious.
2013-12-02
As good as remembered, especially with chocolate cake. Soooo drinkable for 15% ABV, with great coffee, malt, and bourbon notes, with a delightful bit of heat on the lips. So glad this beer has survived InBev.
Drank 12 oz of Dogpatch Sour by Almanac Beer Co. (2014-03)December 31st, 2014
2014-12-31
Lots of tart up front, some subdued berry character, not medicinal and quite tasty.
2014-03-15
Delicious, not too sour, not too sweet, perfect amount of fruit in the nose and on the palate. Glad they did a second run of this.
Drank 750 ml of Serpent's Stout by The Lost Abbey (2014)December 31st, 2014
2014-12-31
Nothing mind blowing, but still a very tasty, straightforward stout
2014-03-08
Really dark, tons of roast, a tiny bit of bitter chocolate. Great, drinkable stout, and hides the ABV perfectly.
Drank 750 ml of Grey Monday by The Bruery (2014-03-28)December 31st, 2014
2024-12-21
Was great. Hazelnut faded a tad (which I liked), balance of sweetness was perfect for a Bruery bottle, another crowd favorite.
2014-12-31
Mild hazelnut in the nose and on the palate, lots of Black Tuesday influence, some solid bourbon, and definitely some heat. Tasty, but think this may hit its prime in a year or so.
Drank 750 ml of Map of the Sun by The Rare Barrel (2014-10-08)December 31st, 2014
2024-12-21
Wasn't too tart and definitely still a solid amount of fruit there. Great bite and flavor, solid sipper.
2015-03-23
Delicious! Super clean, good bit of apricot, perfect tartness, an all around wonderful beer.
2014-12-31
Tasting good but not stellar, recall it being better on draft, I did have a pour towards the end of the bottle so might have been dregs interfering.
Drank 750 ml of Oude Tart With Sour Cherries by The Bruery (2014-06-27)December 29th, 2014
2014-12-29
Lots of oude bruin, lots of cherry, lots of pucker initially, though it mellows out nicely as it warms up. Tasty!
Drank 12 oz of Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2014-11-07)December 27th, 2014
2014-12-27
Tasting great; lots of coffee in the nose and up front, mixes well with the BCBS backend, and a lot more coffee came out as it warmed up. Delicious.
Drank 650 ml of Ol' Leghorn (Three Floyds Collaboration) by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2014-05-30)December 25th, 2014
2017-08-19
While it was nice to have a more hop forward beer in this sea of malt, I can see why its rating isn't that hot. Blonde and bland.
2014-12-25
Tasty! Has a surprisingly hoppy nose and a bit of hop bite, otherwise a solid barleywine, not too sweet and very drinkable.
Drank 750 ml of Apropos of Nothing by The Rare Barrel (2014-09-23)December 25th, 2014
2017-11-05
Lavender super present in this! Amazing nose as a result, and really nice, if slightly weird (in a good way) on the palate.
2015-03-15
Tasting delicious, lots of fruit, not too tart at all, super clean, love this beer.
2014-12-25
Fruit in the nose, lots of acidity and fruit on the palate, got a definite cranberry thing going on that's really tasty. A crowd pleaser.
