| Drank 375 ml of Temptation by Russian River Brewing Company (2014-06-18) | August 4th, 2014 |
2014-08-04 Delicious, great wine notes, perfect mix of tartness and funk, very dry, and oh so drinkable. | |
| Drank 22 oz of Moloko by Three Floyds Brewing (2013) | August 4th, 2014 |
2014-08-04 Tasty, with chocolate, vanilla notes, and a definite sharpness kind of like a porter which was fun to see in a milk stout. | |
| Drank 750 ml of Smoking Wood (Bourbon Barrel Aged) by The Bruery (2013) | August 3rd, 2014 |
2014-08-03 Much better than regular Smoking Wood, the smoke makes a nice backdrop for the pronounced barrel notes, a great take on a porter, and hides the alcohol well. | |
2013-08-23 Zero head, very little carbonation, sweet, oak, and bourbon up front, and lots of smokiness on the finish. Not bad. | |
| Drank 750 ml of Oude Tart by The Bruery (2012) | August 3rd, 2014 |
2014-08-03 Tart, some fruit, lots of barrel, delicious. | |
2013-04-13 Tartness, oak in nose, vinous tartness, good and quite tart Flanders! | |
| Drank 12 oz of Mephistopheles Stout by Avery Brewing Company (2012-11) | August 2nd, 2014 |
2014-08-02 Bit of a sharp nose, maybe some cacao nibs? Same on the palate, with a bit more roastiness, hides the alcohol well but nothing outstanding in the profile, either. Not bad, not great. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Cerise Sour Blonde by Almanac Beer Co. (2014-07) | August 1st, 2014 |
2014-08-01 Nice fruit presence in the nose, but a big hit of diacetyl on the palate, definitely an unpleasant butteriness. Bummer. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Pliny the Elder by Russian River Brewing Company (2014-07-29) | July 31st, 2014 |
2014-07-31 Not as potent as expected, perhaps, but still great. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Farmer's Reserve Blackberry by Almanac Beer Co. (2014-04) | July 29th, 2014 |
2015-11-07 A little more fruit than the Citrus, not bad. | |
2014-07-29 Delicious, tart up front with a solid fruit presence and a balanced mouthfeel and taste. Follows the typical Almanac profile, quite tasty. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Bourbon County Brand Stout by Goose Island Beer Co. (2013-10-11) | July 29th, 2014 |
2014-07-29 Delicious as always, perfect balance and so little heat for the strength, love this stout. | |
| Drank 22 oz of Santa's Little Helper - Oak Barrel Aged by Port Brewing Company (2013) | July 18th, 2014 |
2014-07-18 Thin dark brown head, nice aroma, good amounts of chocolate, a tiny bit of heat. Solid but not mind blowing. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Blackout Stout by Great Lakes Brewing (2012) | July 15th, 2014 |
2014-07-15 A little sharp on the nose, mild coffee and some carbonation and malt on the palate, pretty good! | |
| Drank 500 ml of Dauenhauer by Sonoma Pride (2013-10-15) | July 12th, 2014 |
2014-08-29 Better than the last time, perhaps overridden by previous hopped beers, but tasty funk, nice sweetness, overall a good one. | |
2014-08-23 Funkier than the last bottle, an interesting mix of farmhouse, funk, and malt sweetness. | |
2014-07-12 More esters than Amasa, less head, more malt character, less citrus. Also quite drinkable, very tasty, though Amasa was probably more fun. | |
| Drank 500 ml of Amasa by Sonoma Pride (2013-12-20) | July 12th, 2014 |
2014-08-26 Still delicious. | |
2014-08-23 Still delicious and my favorite of the two Sonoma Pride releases, great hop aroma and flavor, and a great mix of funk. | |
2014-07-12 Fluffy white head, tasty Brett grain and sweetness, mild maltiness, and well carbonated. Eminently drinkable, tasty. | |
| Drank 750 ml of Mrs. Stoutfire by The Bruery (2013-02-15) | July 11th, 2014 |
2014-07-11 Still tasty, much better than Smoking Wood, the smokiness is subdued but present, nice malt and stout characteristics. | |
2013-08-04 Still a nice smokiness, tastes like barbecue, I like it. | |
2013-04-26 Super smokey! Barbecue on the finish, quite good, will get more for Cami. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Farmer's Reserve Citrus by Almanac Beer Co. (2014) | July 11th, 2014 |
2015-11-07 Fruit pretty much done, just tasted like a straightforward Almanac sour, so so. | |
2014-07-11 Tons of citrus, like orange juice in some ways, very tasty! | |
