Enjoyed at HCBS #14. All were amazed at the taste of this 10 yo beer. Near still. Great aromas and nothing off to mention.

Simply amazing. Wonderful light cheese notes with mild juniper and smoked malt. Decent carbonation at 9 years.

HCBS #14. Drain pour

Enjoyed at HCBS #14. Mole version. Peppers obvious callout. Damn good way to finish the night.

Held up very well. Balanced spice and a bit of barrel.

Loving it. Close to still.

Super spicy and super good. No real signs of oxidation. Spices strong and very enjoyable.

Enjoyed poolside during an intense storm. Similar to previous.

Thinner and more bourbon. Good profile but light oxidation at the end.

Body lighter than expected. Delicious.

Pours near black, thick, and minimal head. More chocolate than vanilla on the nose. Vanilla much more prominent in taste. Really bringing the s'mores profile. Big body and minimal carbonation.

Great plum coming through. Another big winner from Vista.

Plum still very present. Excellent ale!

Fruit very prominent. Mild cheesiness, works very well with the sourness. Very old school.

Enjoyed at Mustang Island State Park with wonderful cheeses. Had that drying coffee notes with decent above normal body. Very good!

Poker at Jason's. Ages very well and enjoyed by all. Good wood and molasses flavors.

Loved it on Mustang Island. Suble pear on nose and taste. Lemon and citrus notes otherwise. Easy drinking and very good for warmer weather.

HCBS #19. Very good but not as great as the last one. Finish not top notch

Amazing. No signs of decay. Big coffee and chocolate notes. Fantastic from beginning to end.

Perfection in a bottle

Amazing level of coffee. Stout might be fading a touch.

Wonderful body and taste

Great coffee abound. Love it still.

Wow, this is fantastic. Not a huge body stout but plenty good. Coffee and chocolate blend fantastically with the rye and wood. I have renewed appreciation for this stout.

Enjoyed at HCBS #13. Great barrel aged stout. Love the coffee notes with the booziness. Not as full bodied as some.

Great flavors, body trying to keep up with the booze.

HCBS #13 beer. Loved by all at 10 years. Smokey, peaty scotch coming through as an excellent compliment to the ale.

Simply fantastic! Black Gap WMA

Drank well. Flavors good, oxidation low. Enjoyed

2016 bottle consumed Mar 2023. Thick black with minimal carbonation, minimal beige head with low retention. Nose a bit muted, mineral. Taste definitely getting chocolate, some spice hidden in there. Finish comes through the same as drinking black coffee.

Disappointed with this one. Over 5 years old, and did not hold up. Still, touch of oxidation, some small complexities in flavor, but not worth the price.
