Consumption History
When
Drank 750 ml of Brux Domesticated Wild Ale by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. (2012)April 12th, 2014
2013-06-19
Mild, brett nose, and a delicious mix of sweetness and brett funk on the palate; this second tasting is better than I remember the first being.
2012-12-28
First tasting was solid, with mild sourness. Don't mix with other beers, will overwhelm. Definite wild ale mouthfeel.
Drank 12 oz of Bishop's Barrel 4 by Saint Arnold Brewing Company (2013-07-26)April 12th, 2014
2014-04-12
Interesting beer, kind of a weird mix with the overtly Belgian aroma mixing with the typical wheat and bock flavors, but not bad. Lots of barrel too, with a little heat.
Drank 750 ml of Urban Farmhouse Ale by The Commons Brewery (2014)April 12th, 2014
2014-04-12
Part of the bottle was frozen, but a lot of the beer was still salvageable, and it was delicious! Light, frothy, really pleasant saison without much funk or farmhouse.
Drank 750 ml of Fleur De Ferme by The Commons Brewery (2014)April 12th, 2014
2014-04-12
Dark saison like beer with some interesting floral notes (probably the lavender and hibiscus), not bad but not as good as their regular saison.
Drank 375 ml of Ovila Abbey Quad with Plums by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. (2013)April 12th, 2014
2014-04-12
Has held up quite well, though not as much fruit as I remember, which is to be expected. I do feel like the Westvelteren 12 holds up better.
2013-08-22
Tasty! Plums have faded a it, but still a solid Belgian quad.
2013-02-17
Dark fruit smokiness, delicious, lingering. Must get more!
Drank 750 ml of Strawberry by Cascade Brewing (2012)April 10th, 2014
2014-04-10
Absolutely delicious, probably my favorite of the first three Cascade bottles we've opened. Perfect amount of fruit and sour, still great strawberry flavors all throughout. Wish I had a couple more.
Drank 650 ml of Parabola by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2014)April 9th, 2014
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 Blueberry Ale by Cascade Brewing (2013)April 8th, 2014
2014-04-08
Not bad, fun fruitiness up front, though a tad medicinal on the finish.
Drank 12 oz of World Wide Stout by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery (2013-12-11)April 5th, 2014
2015-03-08
Delicious, chocolate, malt, smoke, and roasted character going on. Love this beer. A hint of alcohol in there too.
2014-04-05
Super solid, no way this is 18%, had the whole bottle myself.
Drank 750 ml of Kriek Ale by Cascade Brewing (2013)April 5th, 2014
2014-04-05
Great, really fresh, perfect balance of tartness and fruit.
2013-10-13
Mix of cherries and tartness in the nose, dark color, some cherry up front but subsides to mostly tartness very quickly. Delicious, great right now in terms of fruit/tart balance.
2013-07-15
Absolutely delicious kriek, perfect balance of tart and cherry characteristics. Extremely drinkable, and deserving of the BA score.
Drank 750 ml of Bois - Brandy by The Bruery (2013-04-17)April 4th, 2014
2014-09-07
Very sweet, molasses laden nose, similar on the palate, with some barrel notes, some fruit, very little heat, and lots of candi sugar. Faint brandy but not a ton. Very tasty.
Drank 500 ml of Shadow of a Doubt by Russian River Brewing Company (2014-03-03)March 31st, 2014
2014-03-21
Chocolate, roast on the nose, a great smoothness on the palate that blends nicely into robust porter character without having the hops be too forward. A great porter.
Drank 375 ml of Sanctification by Russian River Brewing Company (2014-01-28)March 31st, 2014
2014-03-31
Great as always, white wine and fruit forward nose, an acidic but balanced beer on the palate, could drink it all (sunny) day.
Drank 12 oz of Matt by Hair of the Dog Brewing Company (2013)March 31st, 2014
2014-03-31
Surprisingly a let down, had a medicinal thing going on that wasn't great.
Drank 750 ml of Filmishmish by The Bruery (2014-01-09)March 30th, 2014
2021-07-16
Delicious! Mellow, fruit still prominent, nice effervescence, a crows pleaser.
2015-03-15
Tons of funk, way more than last time, with a still good amount of apricot backing it up. Not tart, but boy that farmhouse. Dig it.
2014-03-30
Really great, awesome sour forward with a great apricot finish, an amazing fruit sour that I want more of.
