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.

Drank 750 ml of Bourbon Barrel Golden One by Anthem Brewing Company (2016)June 2nd, 2020
2020-06-02
Not sure this beer ever was great. Hard to tell now. Near still, barrel notes present, but the finish has something off, maybe oxidation.
Drank 12 oz of Thumbprint Enigma by New Glarus Brewing CompanyMay 17th, 2020
2020-05-17
Super sour. Notes of cinnamon along with acetic sour. Nails the style to the extreme.
Drank 750 ml of Farmhouse Ale Co-Fermented with Texas Blueberries by Jester King Craft Brewery (2020-04)May 12th, 2020
2020-05-12
Translucent purple color, near still, no head. Funky nose blends blueberry fruit and mild cheese. Taste has that bit of funky cheese characteristic with great depths of fruit notes in addition to blueberry, such as plum. Rather dry and lacking carbonation.
Drank 12 oz of Bishop's Barrel 9 by Saint Arnold Brewing Company (2015-03-27)May 11th, 2020
2023-04-28

2020-05-11
Loving it. Close to still.
2020-02-27
Super spicy and super good. No real signs of oxidation. Spices strong and very enjoyable.
Drank 375 ml of Abbaye De Saint Bon-Chien Grand Cru 2014 (Sparkling Wine) by Brasserie des Franches-Montagnes (2014)May 8th, 2020
2022-02-25
Not much hiss on the pop. Slight head on coppery red ale. Lots of wine on nose, cherries. Taste leading with cherries and very sour with acetic, funky notes and a bit of a sweet finish. Mild carbonation stingy with the sour on a medium body. Held up incredibility well.
2020-05-08
Totally still. Mixed sour flavors.

Really falling off. Lacking most flavor. Not really off, but need to roll through these.
2023-06-18
Great Father's Day treat with Scott and Michelle. Oxidation quite present but not a deal buster.
2023-02-14
Superb on Valentine's Day!
2022-12-29
Enjoyed at HCBS #10. Everyone loved this 10-year-old ale. Spectacular nose and taste, floral, and distinctly Westvleteren.
2021-12-12

2021-07-04
Enjoyed at Pat and Sue's. Still wonderful.
2021-05-04

2020-12-25
Merry Christmas on Lake Texoma! Hiss on open but no head, near still, brown. Nose having a caramel accent. Taste is divine as fresh.
2020-05-08

Poolside enjoyment
2020-06-23
Similar to recent May tasting. No issues, great taste and looks.
2020-05-06
Big pillow head, golden approaching amber color. Musty nose, barnyard, mineral. Taste includes a but of grass, lactic, bitter, and malt brings some decent body.

After some air it drank amazingly. Big body, very minor difference from new. Boozy and delicious.
2023-09-14
Enjoyed at HCBS #17 before a 2022. Wow, this one continues to hold up great! Was the favorite of the two hands-down. Bigger body and more complex.
2023-03-14
A bit disappointed on this one. Heavy mold on the cap but no infiltration on seal. Good flavor up front but finish not as good as others in this year.
2022-09-16
