A bit brighter than 2021 as expected. Super tasty on NYE with my lady.

Enjoyed at HCBD #29. Great opener, loved by all.

Enjoyed at HCBD #29. Held up well and very good.

Enjoyed at HCBD #29. Tannat barrel edition. Excellent balance and barrel flavors. Not too sour.

Aging well. Really enjoying the balanced sour and Brett. Looking forward to more.

Slightly hazy golden color with white head and minimal retention. Grassy, lemon nose. Taste of fruity citrus and peel, bitter hops combine well on a cracker base with funky bugs. Medium body and low carbonation.

Enjoyed before watching Happiness with the guys. Well liked and not overly soy sauce.

Enjoyed at Fred and Pats block party. Surprised a few that do not drink beer. Was very good and everything expected of the base.

Block party bottle. Jeff wants one for jerky marinade.

Toffee most prominent. A very good ale, some degradation.

Really enjoyed, no issues. Great big body, boozy, beautiful.

Enjoyed at HCBS #14. Decent but with some oxidation.

Flavors may have fallen off. Not bad but just not much going on. Bitterness in finish is the one characteristic that persists.

Good for a lower abv imperial. Pours black with quick disappearing head. Touch of vanilla, cocoa nibs coming in as well and likey bringing some bitterness. Lower body not conducive to aging much longer.

This bottle held up. Very dark with some copper hue, light head with no retention. Nose a bit vinous, boozy, woody. Taste leans toward the liquor, bourbon and sherry most prominent. Body is above medium with slight carbonation.

Simply perfect. Notes evident from each brewery. One of the best ales ever.

Surprisingly excellent. Hope this trend continues.

Very enjoyable. Oxidation has leveled off with last few.

Better than expected. Very enjoyable. Slight off taste at the end

Enjoyed at HCBS #10. So good we had to drink 2. Surprised a few on how well the smoke and peat work with the BA stout. No significant issues with slight oxidation.

Very good! This one had little signs of oxidation. Loved it

OK carbonation. Not as oxidized as others. Scotch barrel fading.

Starting to fade. Need to run through these fast.

This one not great, oxidized.

Infinitely better than the last bottle. No signs of mentionable oxidation.

Oxidation setting in. Drink ASAP.

Fun times at Josh and Mel's.

Small bottle on a cold night. Wonderful.

HCBS #21 12 year vertical. Most loved!

Enjoyed at HCBS #17. Did not stand up as well as the 2013 surprisingly. Had a fresher chocolate taste, but thinner body. Not the favorite.

Enjoyed at HCBS #28. Well liked against some heavy hitters. Not much booziness or barrel.

Enjoyed at Jaguar Shark release. Big molasses flavor, anise hide the booze well.

Enjoyed at HCBS #28. The crowd thought it was very good.
