All that Danish stout… Amazing.
I ditched the Orval (at least until tomorrow) in favour of this cheeky bugger:
First time for me, apples, malt and a touch of vinegar. Not as sweet as other Oud Bruin. Almost dry at the end. I enjoyed it. Do you rate these guys, Seul?

Big Elm Fat Boy Double IPA. Pretty darn solid.

Not drinking this today but was rearranging my cellar setup and remembered I had it. 2011 Sam Adams Utopias with taster. 30% abv

:o
That's like saying, "Man, I was cleaning out my garage today and remembered i had this S550 AMG. Might drive it some day…"
Great score! I've only seen one other from that year, and I didn't get to taste it. Would love to hear/see your impressions/pics if you ever open it.
Wish I could find some of the 2015 Utopias, sounds brilliant:

Haha it was a gift way back in 2011. It's dusty. If the Pats win tomorrow I'll toast it. Outside of that I'll be opening a couple different Treehouse brews tonight or tomorrow.

The taster was a gift from Sam Adams. In order to get it I had to give them the serial number on the bottle and they mailed it to me. Pretty classy.
-
Thanks. I'll be using it later after market trip.

My regular trading partner offered me some, but I didn't feel like having to ship him two million bottles of Cantillon in return…

You made the right choice!

I'll keep an eye out. I'm going to a pretty good tasting/trading event next weekend and Sam Adams will actually be there.

Tonight's lineup, shared with mom in law
Treehouse Alter Ego - almost perfect
Wormtown Be Hoppy - too bitter from front to back not well rounded
Big Elm Transformer IPL - their first try, just ok, doesn't hold a candle to Jacks Abbey in this category, which brings me to this..
Jacks Abbey Hoponius Union IPL. Very crisp very solid. No coffee table because kids so I improvised. -
My holiday is off to a BRILLIANT start… Best aged beer I've ever drank... One of the best beers I've ever drank, period... I was scared it'd be past its point, being a 2008 bottle... Fuck me running - it sure as fuck wasn't... Slowly gushing foam when opened, poured a beautiful chestnut with a bit of cognac coloured ale that prominently had port in the nose...
The balance... The balance... Dear gods the balance... I'm pretty sure this was at its absolute PEAK...
Got me new camera - I like it a lot…
