| Drank 16 oz of Ninja vs Unicorn by Pipeworks Brewing Company (2018-09-27) | October 31st, 2018 |
| Drank 12 oz of Brewer's Reserve Bourbon Barrel Barleywine by Central Waters Brewing Company (2017-03-16) | October 30th, 2018 |
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 16 oz of Juice Pants by Maplewood Brewery (2018-10-01) | October 29th, 2018 |
2018-11-02 Note to self: give up on NEIPAs. It smells great but I'm a west coast guy. | |

| Drank 12 oz of Curmudgeon's Better Half by Founders Brewing (2018-08-20) | October 27th, 2018 |
2019-11-15 They pretty much nailed this one. Maple is there. Nutty, dry bitterness is there from the old ale. Light on the bourbon, no big deal. A dessert beer for sure, very sweet. But good for the right situation/mood. | |
| Drank 16 oz of Ninja vs Unicorn by Pipeworks Brewing Company (2018-09-27) | October 26th, 2018 |
| Drank 12 oz of Serendipity by New Glarus Brewing Company | October 24th, 2018 |
2018-01-31 Very heavy on the apple from the Teku glass. | |
2016-05-19 Blows me away, every time. The wrong food pairing can wreck this beer, though. First glass was amazing. After a salad with vinegar mustard dressing, all I could taste was the apples and a little cherry tart and cranberry sour. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Thumbprint Enigma by New Glarus Brewing Company (2017-01-08) | October 24th, 2018 |
2018-04-13 Again big malt, less fermented cherry than I remember. Smells like vinegar but more of a moderate sour on the tongue. Carbonation is delightful as ever. Not sure I can put this up there with my favorites any more. Cran-bic is so good. And I still have an Oud Bruin left. Wished New Glarus would put out more in this vein instead Weiss beers. | |
2017-08-09 So much maltier than I remember. Gives it a lot more depth, although it's not as crisply refreshing. Mutes the cherries a bit, too. Oddly reminds me of BBQ now, even though I don't like that beer. | |
2017-03-26 Such a drinkable sour. New Glarus sours work for me. Less cherry and less carbonation than I remember. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Expedition Stout by Bell's Brewery, Inc. (2018-10-08) | October 23rd, 2018 |
2018-10-23 Thick and rich, but definitely improves with a few years under its belt. | |
| Drank 12 oz of Thumbprint Chocolate Stout by New Glarus Brewing Company (2018-10) | October 22nd, 2018 |
2018-10-22 Tootsie Roll chocolate stout. | |
2018-10-19 Like drinking chocolate milk. But better. | |
| Drank 22 oz of §ucaba by Firestone Walker Brewing Co. (2016) | October 21st, 2018 |
2018-10-21 Shockingly, not as balanced as I expected. When I drank the 2013 last December it was liquid caramel. This had a woody harshness that reminded me of how the CW barleywine can be. Definitely better at room temp. Shows every bit of the 13+% abv. Nice viscosity and aroma but I expected it to be smoother and sweeter. | |
| Drank 750 ml of Alexander by Brouwerij Rodenbach | October 20th, 2018 |
2018-10-20 This might be the best sour I have ever had. The acidity never overwhelmed my palate. The spot on carbonation contributed to a delightful soft mouthfeel. And I had no trouble finishing a 750 on my own at 5.6%. I consider it pricey at $17 but I have paid more for less. Would crush again. | |
