| Drank 16 oz of Heavy Machinery Double IPA by Austin Beerworks (2013) | October 23rd, 2013 |
2013-10-22 Definitely not up to the likes of Heady Topper enjoyed immediately before, the malt/pine ratio is a bit off, but it's a decent DIPA. | |
2013-10-21 Skunk/malt nose, same thing on the palate. A decent double IPA, though nothing mind blowing. | |

| Drank 16 oz of Heady Topper by The Alchemist (2013-10-08) | October 22nd, 2013 |
2013-10-26 Tastes like drinking hops. Pablo wasn't into it. I think it's delicious ;-) | |
2013-10-26 This beer is great; must get some more. | |
2013-10-24 An extremely delicious beer; such a great hop aroma (smell the can after pouring, worth it), a subtle balance of malt and hop, not too bitter but tons of lupulin goodness. Wish we got this over here. Need to do a back to back with Pliny. | |
2013-10-23 Still quite tasty! | |
2013-10-22 Lots of citrus, pine, both in the nose and on the palate. A delicious IPA. Wouldn't say better than Pliny, but not worse either; they're both up there on the same level. | |
| Drank 22 oz of Devestatetion by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. (2013) | October 22nd, 2013 |
2013-10-22 A pretty good example of the style, though it'd be better if it were a little more hop forward with less grain on the finish. Also annoyingly difficult to open (wax!) ;-) | |
| Drank 16 oz of Heavy Machinery Wet Hop IPA by Austin Beerworks (2013) | October 22nd, 2013 |
2013-10-24 Mild, and works better than their DIPA I think. Not bad, not great. | |
2013-10-21 Only a mild bit of grassiness, same aroma as the DIPA, and great flavor though not as robust. Good example of the style. | |
2013-10-20 Was slightly frozen when cooling down, difficult to tell how it is, need to drink another. | |
| Drank 650 ml of Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2012-11-12) | October 22nd, 2013 |
2013-10-22 Awesome beer; some coffee bitterness, especially in the nose, and great taste on the palate, no heat or booziness and the malt balances well with the coffee. Regular BCBS perhaps a tad better, but this is great. | |

| Drank 500 ml of Pliny the Elder by Russian River Brewing Company (2013-10-08) | October 16th, 2013 |
2013-10-16 Delicious as always. | |
| Drank 375 ml of Supplication by Russian River Brewing Company (2013-04-11) | October 16th, 2013 |
2013-09-16 Haven't had it for a while, but, delicious! | |
| Drank 22 oz of Santa's Little Helper by Port Brewing Company (2009) | October 15th, 2013 |
2013-10-15 Has a bit of a "crunch", nose isn't my favorite but the taste is pretty good. Probably unfair coming to this after the Merkin, but good. | |
| Drank 650 ml of Velvet Merkin by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2013) | October 15th, 2013 |
2017-08-19 I think this is the only one I had a pour of, but it's tasting great! I was worried it might not age well, but it held up great. May also have been enjoyable because of the comparatively lower ABV. | |
2014-10-09 Tasting good, a bit lighter than expected, hides the booze entirely, some nuttiness and some oatmeal definitely present, a delicious brew. | |
2013-10-15 Makes the wife a happy wife ;-) Awesome nose, lots of vanilla and maybe a hint of coconut, super smooth on the palate with a perfect balance of maltiness and oak characteristic, cut nicely by the oatmeal. Firestone knows how to make a delicious stout. | |
| Drank 750 ml of Kriek Ale by Cascade Brewing (2013) | October 13th, 2013 |
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 16 oz of Oktober Fest - Märzen by Brauerei Aying Franz Inselkammer KG (2013) | October 12th, 2013 |
2013-10-12 Sweet, but not too sweet, a great Marzen | |
2013-09-28 Tasty, with lots of malt, definitely a taste of Germany. | |
