| Drank 22 oz of Rye Barrel Stout by Central Waters Brewing Company (2018) | February 9th, 2019 |
2019-04-14 Better this time, compared to my previous notes. So much chocolate. Rye came through much more when fully chilled, smoothed out with sweet milk chocolate as it warmed. | |
2019-02-09 I expected more at 13% from Central Waters, although I don't regret the $8. Whiskey leavings give an odd sour mash taste, which doesn't jibe with the roasty stout. Not as massive of a stout as I would expect, the ABV must be largely due to the spirit. Not as balanced as I hoped. I'd rather have their regular old bourbon barrel stout, even if I'm not grading on an abv/cost curve. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Hopsoulution Ale by Bell's Brewery, Inc. (2018-12-28) | February 7th, 2019 |
2019-02-07 This is a solid 8% DIPA with rich aromatic hops. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Straight Jacket by Revolution Brewing LLC (2019-01-04) | February 6th, 2019 |
2019-02-06 This is amazing. | |

| Drank 12 oz of §ucaba by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2018) | February 4th, 2019 |
| Drank 12 oz of Thumbprint Flanders Sour by New Glarus Brewing Company (2019-01) | February 3rd, 2019 |
2019-08-02 It's pretty good. Wish he would do the Oud Bruin again. | |
2019-03-09 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. | |
2019-02-03 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. | |

| Drank 12 oz of Brewer's Reserve Bourbon Barrel Barleywine by Central Waters Brewing Company (2017-03-16) | January 30th, 2019 |
2020-01-17 So, this takes 2 or 3 years of aging to get it where I want it. The bite is gone, the heat is gone, so smooth and rich. Tastes unmistakably like a barleywine, and an American barleywine at that, but so well integrated. One of the few worth the cellar space. Sigh, not quite Straightjacket but half the price. | |
2019-01-30 Life. | |
2018-01-09 This was a little more woody tasting earlier on but now the sweeter stickiness is coming out just like you want from a barleywine. | |
| Drank 330 ml of Aventinus Weizen-Eisbock by Private Weissbierbrauerei G. Schneider & Sohn GmbH (2016-09-13) | January 30th, 2019 |
| Drank 330 ml of Tap X Mein Eisbock Barrique by Private Weissbierbrauerei G. Schneider & Sohn GmbH (2017-01-30) | January 29th, 2019 |
2019-01-29 Could hardly be more disappointed. It tastes like runoff from the wine barrels. On the plus side, no hint of the wheat characteristic that detracts from the base beer(s). Of course there is no hint of the base beer at all. Not too vinegary to drink, a bit more salinity as it warms. Why would you do this to a beer? Such a poor marriage of beer and barrel. | |

| Drank 12 oz of Rift IPA by Central Waters Brewing Company (2018-12-06) | January 28th, 2019 |
2019-01-17 This is a worthy competitor to Anti-Hero. Doesn't quite have the soft carb, but this will never disappoint me. | |

2019-01-26 This vintage is awesome. Better than Expedition Stout. | |
