When
Drank 750 ml of Grey Monday by The Bruery (2014-03-28)December 31st, 2014
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
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.
Drank 12 oz of Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2013-11-15)December 24th, 2014
2015-06-26
Still a surprising amount of coffee, and tasting great, thick, not too hot, and that great BCBS stout character. Still digging it.
2015-01-23
Tasting great, though as expected a bit muted on the coffee compared to drinking it fresh.
2014-12-24
Much sweeter than remembered, though not in a bad way, coffee definitely subdued but still present in the nose and on the backend, has some of that BCBW marshmellow I remember too. Tasting great.
2014-02-24
Still great, lots of coffee on the nose and on the palate, and so drinkable for the ABV, hardly any heat. A great blend.
2013-12-13
Sooo much coffee presence, delicious and up front, much better than the 2012 bottle opened a while back. Superb and not grounds-like, just a great blend, should drink another soon.
Drank 750 ml of Speedway Stout - Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee by AleSmith Brewing Company (2014-02-25)December 23rd, 2014
2014-12-23
Great! Lots of coffee, great nose, and even when cold tasting awesome. Even better as it warms up. Delicious.
Drank 500 ml of Old Rasputin XV Anniversary by North Coast Brewing Co. (2013)December 22nd, 2014
2014-12-22
Not so great, some raisin and definite oxidation and a bit too much barrel. Meh.
Drank 12 oz of Bourbon County Brand Barleywine by Goose Island Beer Co. (2014-09-24)December 22nd, 2014
2021-09-03
Held up OK.
2015-11-07
"This barley wine is gnarly wine" says Evan. Big, thick, some booze heat but pleasantly so, and a reduced candy profile from what I last remember.
2014-12-22
Not as much magic as last year but still quite tasty, nice malt character without being too sweet.
Drank 12 oz of Framboise White by Block 15 Brewery & Restaurant (2012-10)December 21st, 2014
2014-12-21
Great! Mellow funk and solid malt backbone, dig it.
Drank 22 oz of Divine Reserve 13 by Saint Arnold Brewing Company (2013-02-22)December 21st, 2014
2014-12-21
Pretty mediocre, lots of candi sugar and otherwise pretty thin.
Drank 750 ml of Brise-BonBons! by Brasserie Fantôme (2013)December 21st, 2014
2014-12-21
A little less enjoyable than remembered but still great, lots of grass, some good funk, and a nice malt sweetness up front.
Drank 375 ml of Box Set Track 8 by The Lost Abbey (2013)December 21st, 2014
2014-12-21
Surprisingly tasty! Quite hot give the cinnamon and chilies, but super drinkable and a pleasant surprise.
Drank 12 oz of Expedition Stout by Bell's Brewery, Inc. (2014-09-18)December 16th, 2014
2014-12-16
Tasty! Straightforward but drinkable stout, got much better after it warmed up for 15 minutes too.
