Drank 12 oz of Olde School Barleywine by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery (2017-01-18) | December 3rd, 2019 |
2019-12-03 Now it's really really good. Wish I had waited a little longer to open the first couple of bottles. Then I'd plan to drink them this winter. I guess it could get better, but it's really nice now. | |
2019-08-09 I can drink it with tacos. Certainly not the most optimal pairing but they're both still good even if they have completely separate flavor profiles. It's sweet. That's mostly what I'm getting this time. It's good, doesn't beat you over the head with hops. | |
2019-01-09 Now it tastes good. Alcohol heat is gone, leaving behind raisin, date, fig, sweetness. Incredibly deceiving 15% now, I would guess 11%. However, as pleasant as it is I don't long for a beer that tastes like this. I don't avoid eating food or brushing my teeth afterwards in order to continue enjoying the aftertaste. It's as good as any naked barleywine I've ever had, but can't aspire to the same heights as one aged in spirit barrels. | |
2018-05-05 Still plenty of alcohol heat. Not a dramatic amount of flavor for 15%. I guess I'll give it another year but I'm underwhelmed. Why do I keep trying stuff that isn't Central Waters? | |
Drank 12 oz of Moon Man by New Glarus Brewing Company | December 1st, 2019 |
Drank 12 oz of Expedition Stout by Bell's Brewery, Inc. (2018-10-08) | November 30th, 2019 |
2024-01-11 Five years was just a bit past its prime. Great to know. Maybe just this vintage or this bottle, but no reason to sit on this for longer than 4-5 years. | |
2018-10-23 Thick and rich, but definitely improves with a few years under its belt. | |
Drank 750 ml of Ommegang XX - 20th Anniversary Ale by Brewery Ommegang (2017) | November 30th, 2019 |
Drank 12 oz of Dragon's Milk Reserve Maple Oak by New Holland Brewing Company (2019-06-25) | November 29th, 2019 |
2019-08-28 It's good. Maple is coming through now. Bourbon, not so much. Very smooth. | |
Drank 12 oz of CBS (Canadian Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2019-09-25) | November 27th, 2019 |
2020-01-24 When fully chilled, coffee is bitter and maple syrup is barely present. Let it warm a little and it all integrates much better. | |

Drank 12 oz of Brewer's Reserve Bourbon Barrel Barleywine by Central Waters Brewing Company (2018-09-05) | November 18th, 2019 |
2023-04-11 Fairly oxidized after 4.5 years. A little surprising, really, but it can happen. Not sweet or bitter, dry and a little chocolatey. It was good but not an accurate representation. | |
Drank 12 oz of Smells Like Bean Spirit by Mikerphone (2019-05-06) | November 17th, 2019 |
2019-05-24 Uh, this is real good. Very pastry stout, even at 8%, I can see why it moves the needle. | |

Drank 12 oz of Curmudgeon's Better Half by Founders Brewing (2018-08-20) | November 15th, 2019 |
2019-11-15 They pretty much nailed this one. Maple is there. Nutty, dry bitterness is there from the old ale. Light on the bourbon, no big deal. A dessert beer for sure, very sweet. But good for the right situation/mood. | |
Drank 12 oz of Brewer's Reserve Bourbon Barrel Stout by Central Waters Brewing Company (2019-10-16) | November 14th, 2019 |
Drank 275 ml of Harvey's Christmas Ale by Harvey & Son (Lewes) | November 13th, 2019 |
