Drank 22 oz of Mother Of All Storms by Pelican Pub & Brewery (2013-12-03) | May 13th, 2014 |
2014-05-13 Not bad, not as good as Sucaba, but a solid barleywine that I was able to drink in a sitting. Definitely a bit boozy. | |
Drank 750 ml of Windowsill by The Bruery (2013-08-15) | May 11th, 2014 |
2014-05-11 Pretty good, definitely hits the intended mark and still a lot of fruit, though a little lacking in complexity. A straightforward but solid beer. | |
2013-11-02 Quite tart, lots of raspberry, murky color but some nice fruit characteristics that are somewhat overwhelmed with the sourness. Not bad at all. | |
Drank 750 ml of Melange No. 9 by The Bruery (2014-01-29) | May 11th, 2014 |
2014-05-11 "Tastes like a tiki bar drink" about sums it up. Subdued coconut, definite ginger and spice presence, and a nice, tart finish. Enjoyed this more than I expected to. | |
Drank 750 ml of Allagash Curieux by Allagash Brewing Company (2011-12) | May 7th, 2014 |
2014-05-07 Still good, though the bourbon has definitely faded, tending to agree this one will be better fresher. | |
Drank 650 ml of Espresso Imperial Russian Stout by Stone Brewing (2013-03-28) | May 6th, 2014 |
2014-05-06 This has held up great! That great Stone IRS backing with some nice espresso on top, which surprisingly has not significantly faded. Delicious, may even have to pick up another. | |
2013-04-25 Espresso quite strong, and tasty. Big nose as a result, and the finish has a lot of coffee. Good, but wonder how the coffee will hold up to age. | |
Drank 750 ml of Arctic Saison by Grassroots Brewing (2013-05) | May 6th, 2014 |
2014-05-06 Still delicious, nice, light, and perhaps a bit funkier than it was fresh, in a good way. | |
2013-07-10 A delicious saison, brett adding mostly bready notes and not much tartness, but extremely well balanced and quite quaffable. | |
Drank 500 ml of Framinghammer Baltic Porter - Bourbon Barrel Aged With Barismo Coffee by Jack's Abby (2014) | May 6th, 2014 |
2014-05-06 Delicious, light sweetness is well balanced with the coffee, definitely feeling the Baltic Porter vibe. Great beer. | |
Drank 750 ml of Tripel Tonnellerie by The Bruery (2014-04-04) | May 2nd, 2014 |
2014-05-02 Weird, not good, a bad Brett character on the finish, not balanced, a little off even. | |
Drank 22 oz of Old Guardian Oak Smoked Barley Wine by Stone Brewing (2013) | April 27th, 2014 |
2014-04-27 Pretty good! Smokiness makes a nice compliment to the typical barley wine sweetness. | |
2013-03-15 Interesting barleywine, oaked/smoked aspect gives it a unique sharpness, and it's not too sweet nor syrupy. I like it. | |
Drank 750 ml of Rue d'Floyd by The Bruery (2014-03-13) | April 26th, 2014 |
2017-04-27 Dumped; soured as expected | |
2014-06-27 Feeling like the finish is maybe hinting at signs of turning, but still a damn delicious beer. Should drink the final one soon. | |
2014-04-26 Absolutely amazingly delicious, a perfect mix of chocolate, vanilla, porter, and coffee flavors. This beer screams "dessert!" in the best possible way. Will have to order some more despite the aging dangers. | |
Drank 750 ml of Floyd D'Rue by The Bruery (2014-03-07) | April 25th, 2014 |
2014-04-25 I see what people mean calling this a mess, though I didn't find it that bad, just a TON of booze (rum and spice) up front, with a more typical Bruery stout finish. Too bad this one can't be set down for some extended aging. | |
Drank 750 ml of MischMishMish by The Bruery (2014) | April 25th, 2014 |
2014-05-23 Still great, lots of apricot and tiny but of brett character. | |
2014-04-25 Awesome beer, still bummed I couldn't get more. Basically tastes like Mischief with apricots added (which I'd wager is the actual deal with this beer). Hope it becomes a standard. | |
Drank 12 oz of Ken Schmidt / Iron Fist / Stone Mint Chocolate Imperial Stout by Stone Brewing (2012) | April 15th, 2014 |
2015-10-10 Still lots of mint! Hope they do this beer again, super delicious. | |
2014-05-25 Still lots of mint, dark chocolate, very little booziness. Love it. | |
2014-04-15 Tasting great, very much like a peppermint patty with lots of chocolate and a subtle amount of mint. Great beer, glad I grabbed extras. | |
2013-10-08 The mint is possibly fading a tad, but still an amazingly delicious beer. So well done. | |
2013-03-29 This beer is amazing. The mint works so well. Wish I had more in the cellar than just two! | |
2013-01-09 This was delicious! Was scared mint would overwhelm, but was extremely subtle and a perfect compliment. Should age well, must resist temptation to drink them all now. | |
Drank 22 oz of Imperial Russian Stout by Stone Brewing (2014) | April 15th, 2014 |
2014-04-15 Quite good, lots of roast coffee, toffee, perhaps a bit of anise in the nose but none on the palate thankfully. Imagine this will settle well with time. | |
Drank 22 oz of Elder Brett: Saison-Brett Golden Ale by Epic Brewing Company (2013) | April 12th, 2014 |
