      I've,recently,been going to 2 semi local brewers when they release Bourbon Barrel Stouts. The problem is that they only get a few barrels,resulting in about 300 750ml bottles, and they tend to sell out on the day they release them to the public. Kind of like a recent IH shirt. Whenever I've been fortunate enough to get some,it's always been worth the effort and the cost.($15-$16)

        Obviously there are better BA stouts out there. My favourite might be Stronzo - Anniversary #2. Not counting beer produced on such a small scale with ridiculous amounts of ingredients, that they could never be sold commercially..

          Goddammit, that was ridiculous. 16AbV and an even 100ibu. Tastes like sweet soy sauce, with dried fruits and a port wine finish. Fantastic. I've just ordered two more.

            Pinthouse Pizza WTF Is Juice?
            Hazy, juicy NE style IPA. Pretty tasty, no one that I know of in Texas is even trying to make this style of beer so I'll take it. Also I don't have access to the NE breweries that are making those beers so this'll have to do!

            I liked it so much I brought two crowlers of it home too and am drinking one now.

            Pinthouse Pizza Nomura. This is an imperial version of their really tasty Electric Jellyfish, clocking in at 10.5% or something like that. Super tasty, brought two crowlers of it home as well.

                  Didn't buy that Dark Horizon cause it was 20€ for a 0.5l bottle… Decided to get some cheaper stuff... 30 beers and two glasses for 115€ - not too bad!..

                        This was really nice. Scotch barrel aged for 2 years but with a little sour from raspberries to cut the sweetness.

                              More silliness. The Mud Cake almost worked. This one is just plain crap. Disappointing commercialism from a previously decent brewery.

                                  Word. Although I also drank my one year old Brewdog Ab21 last weekend. First time I've experienced a years cellaring making real, marked, difference to a beer.

                                  It's an abv heavy, tiramisu, barley wine, and initially there was too much going on with it. After a year all the flavours seem to have not only developed but also separated, so you can revel in the complexity. I guess this is what they mean by a beer "settling down".

                                          Against the Grain's 70k is much, much, much better, cheaper, and takes 3 seconds to open.

                                            Wax seals are so horrible.  I've gotten to the point where I won't even buy a bottle with wax all over it…
