      Very coffee forward, not much cocoa, and almost no whiskey. Not bad, but not what I expected

        I like Big Bag Baptist, haven't had it in a couple years now but I remember enjoying it.
        Drinking this right now, didn't last long in the fridge. Absolutely delicious…

          Seeing as how it costs 1€/ standard bottle here in Belgium for a saison Dupont, I'd wager to say it's the best Belgian beer price/ quality-wise…

          jdl: yeah I don't fret about expiry dates at all... My mate does, however... It's funny: he has his cellar organised by exp date... "2019 's gonna be a heavy drinking year: all my Struise beers are expiring then"...

            I love stumbling upon the occasional bottle of 10%+ that's marked down because it's old. It happens more frequently than you might think with some of these shop owners.

              I haven't done it so far, but I might start checking bottling dates and such in shops where there's heating and (too much) light…

                I typically check bottling dates. I came across a 2014 Black Hatter IPA on Saturday. The shop is usually better than that and when I pointed it out the guy was genuinely embarrassed

                    This thing is properly spicy, in a very balanced way. LOVE it!..

                      Madrugada Obscura sour stout from Jolly Pumpkin. I had no idea what to expect from this one, couldn't begin to wrap my brain around the concept of a sour stout. It's actually pretty great, just a good sour with a touch of the richness and creaminess of a good stout.

                        Another day, another Chocolate Manifesto. If you have access to this gem and haven't tried it, you're doing yourself a disservice

                          If you're interested in sour stouts see if you can track down Funk Metal from Jester King. So damn good.

                            That would be a tough one to get outside of TX I reckon? But, a really good more readily available sour/stout would be Tart of Darkness:

                              Yup, not easy to find outside of Texas but the last few times I've been out to the brewery they've had it on tap.
                              Funny that you mention Tart Of Darkness since we can't get The Breuery in Texas.  😉

                                Which is a shame, since Tart of Darkness is one of my favorite beers of all time.  Really, really love that one.

                                    Pannepot 2007. Downright mindboggling. Beautiful evo. Very, very slight sour touch, but nowhere near oxidised or past its peak.
