When
Drank 12 oz of World Wide Stout by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery (2014-01-25)April 3rd, 2019
2024-01-25
Hey, this was actually good! The alcohol burn was way down (although it peeked out as it warmed) and the flavor was chocolate roast. I mean, it's still not as good as many readily available imperial stouts but I guess the sweet spot is ten years.
Drank 12 oz of Thumbprint Flanders Sour by New Glarus Brewing Company (2019-01)April 2nd, 2019

It's pretty good. Wish he would do the Oud Bruin again.

Has mellowed out a bit. Not sure how much character this will develop. Didn't overly impress me from the start so it's probably not my bag. Cran-bic, Enigma, Oud Bruin, Wild Sour, those are worth the space. This is refreshing. Goes well with trout. Probably won't buy again. Not because it's bad but there is great stuff out there and available.

Wish it were maltier, I guess that would be an Oud Bruin. Should develop some nice funk so I'll be patient with the other bottles.

This is amazing.
Drank 12 oz of 90 Minute IPA by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery (2019-03-13)March 31st, 2019
Drank 500 ml of Old Stock Ale - 2013 Cellar Reserve by North Coast Brewing Co.March 29th, 2019
2019-03-29
Unreasonably smooth. Caramel. Creme brulee. Spirit driven. Expensive, but worth it.

Caramel. Smells THE BEST. Less intense than 2014 Rye, surprisingly balanced at 14%. Glad I have another.
Drank 275 ml of Harvest Ale (Lagavulin Cask) by JW Lees and Co. (Brewers) Ltd. (2017)March 28th, 2019
2019-03-28
REALLY musky. Too much barrel dregs? Still pretty tasty. Maybe not $9 tasty.
Drank 12 oz of Bourbon Barrel Doppelbock by Lakefront Brewery (2019-01-21)March 27th, 2019
2019-07-10
Has some really nice caramely notes and the barrel is about as well integrated as you could hope but... this style just isn't a good candidate for barrel aging. Fun, but not a banger.
Drank 12 oz of Brewer's Reserve Bourbon Barrel Stout by Central Waters Brewing Company (2018-08-27)March 26th, 2019
2018-11-19
Always fun to try fresh. Reaffirms that it's better after 6 months. More coffee roast when cold, not much bourbon. Burnt chocolate as it warms. Will be interesting to see if the 2018 just has more roast than past vintages.
Drank 12 oz of Brewer's Reserve Bourbon Barrel Scotch Ale by Central Waters Brewing Company (2018-06-26)March 25th, 2019

I missed recording a bottle of this somewhere.
Drank 12 oz of Lakefront Pils by Lakefront BreweryMarch 24th, 2019
Drank 12 oz of Old Stock Ale 2018 by North Coast Brewing Co. (2018-01)March 21st, 2019
2019-04-17
This 2018 did not hold up. Completely oxidized. Can't wait to open the 2014 or 2012 now to see if my memory of what it should be is correct.
Drank 12 oz of Anti-Hero by Revolution Brewing LLC (2019-01-23)March 20th, 2019
Drank 12 oz of Curmudgeon's Better Half by Founders Brewing (2018-08-20)March 19th, 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 22 oz of The Abyss by Deschutes Brewery (2015-12-08)March 17th, 2019

Don't drink this fully refrigerated. It's all bitter chocolate and coffee roast. When it warms just a bit all kinds of complexity and sweetness come out. At the right temp it's beautiful.
