| Drank 12 oz of Brewer's Reserve Bourbon Barrel Scotch Ale by Central Waters Brewing Company (2015-08-06) | September 1st, 2016 |
2020-02-20 Held up remarkably well, much better than the 2016 I opened the same night. Rich malty depth and retains more barrel than bourbon. Still, it showed its age, not a beer that needs cellaring. Sad to see CW let this one go. | |
2017-07-18 I like it chilled a bit, now, but not 44 degrees or anything. As good as it gets for me. | |
2016-08-27 The best. | |
2016-05-19 This is just my favorite beer. So rich and sweet, but not alcohol sweet. Smooth and delicious. | |
2016-05-04 Bourbon had faded significantly after 9 months. It's still there but more in the background. It's smoother overall but I really liked the big bourbon presence. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Glacial Trail IPA by Central Waters Brewing Company (2016-08-04) | August 29th, 2016 |
| Drank 500 ml of Less is More by Une Année | August 28th, 2016 |
2016-08-28 Extremely carbonated, otherwise a refreshing straightforward saison. | |

2016-08-15 I like this one much better in the IPA glass vs. the chalice. | |

| Drank 12 oz of Backwoods Bastard by Founders Brewing (2015-10-06) | August 20th, 2016 |
2017-11-03 Still good, maybe not as balanced as it could be. Smokier, burnt caramel, enough bourbon but not a bomb. More barrel than bourbon. | |
2017-05-30 Lost about all the bourbon in the flavor. I expected it to be smoother by now but it's still quite boozy. Very sweet, in a good way, though. | |

| Drank 12 oz of Old Ruffian by Great Divide Brewing Company (2015-01-28) | August 17th, 2016 |
2017-05-16 Better cold this time, more burnt sugar. But still very bitter when I look for a lot more sweetness from this style. | |
2017-05-09 I loved it when about a year old but I don't like where the flavor is going. I kind of get the wet cardboard thing. Not sure how much to chalk up to my palate changing vs. the beer changing. Whatever the case, I'll look to finish off the other bottle soon or give it away. Maybe try this again in the future and drink it while I like it. I think that's the lesson here with beer that is aging. | |
