I think it may not have been fully chilled last night. Lot's of fresh hops. Still not as bitter as I like but it's really drinkable.

Not as potent as I expected. 9.4% drinks like 7%. Surprisingly subtle which isn't what I want for a $15 6-pack. Hit me in the face with those hops, please. I need to try the regular. I'd rather have the Ruination.

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.

I like it chilled a bit, now, but not 44 degrees or anything. As good as it gets for me.

The best.

This is just my favorite beer. So rich and sweet, but not alcohol sweet. Smooth and delicious.

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.

It's fine. Not my favorite, though. And way overpriced.

I may have to revise that. I remember this tasting a lot more chocolaty and less roast. Definitely has a bite.

NOT an RIS, but a very good Imperial Stout.

So balanced. Reminds me a lot of Avery's Maharaja, though not quite as much of a hop bomb. Very balanced, not particularly bitter. Lost of dregs in the last pour of the 750.
