      This, however, is good… Sweet and smokey...

        They have this brewery at my local shop. Yet to try but your experience seems positive?

          I've been trying their stuff for years… But have only started coming across them again recently... Their cellar series is almost 100% legit awesome...

          If they have the Taanilinn cognac BA (collab with To Ol): buy 50. Or snap a pic of what your store has on offer and ask me which to buy... Seriously, I'm a nerd, I like that kind of shit...  😉

            We now have 3 monopoly stores in my town and the biggest became a specialist beer store in December. The variety has exploded. There must be nearly 10 times as many beers to choose from including about 25m of shelving dedicated to stouts and porters. I’ve been meaning to go in and document it for you. Friday is pay day so I’ll be going mental then.

              Please, please, please, please document it with several high res pics… I am sure your store offers a lot more different stuff than what we get here, and I'm always keen on getting to know new beers and breweries...

              Give me some homework!..  😃

                  Epic Brewing Big Bad Baptista.
                  Surprisingly not too sweet, even better as it warmed up a bit. Heavy hitter despite the advertised 11% ABV.

                              Picked this up yesterday on a quick stop before my larger shopping trip on Friday. It was solid.

                              Otherwise the beer dept was thinned out after xmas. Restock incoming, but I snapped a few sours, stouts and other bottles that I’m interested in buying in the future. Tips will be welcomed on the Belgian bottles. Also anyone tried this Botanicals and Barrels series from Avery?:

                              And the darker stuff:

                                Tilquin Mûre - probably reassuringly expensive, but worth a try…
                                Pöhjala Jöuluöö - it's on my list to order...
                                Cuvée de Mortagne - I'd skip it...
                                Tre Fontane - skip...
                                Avery Vanilla Bean Stout - probably worth a try, haven't had it meself though...
                                Oud Beersel Bersalis Sourblend - skip...
                                Verzet Oud Bruin - if it's cheap...
                                Pühaste Dekadents - I haven't had it, but if I come across it, it's definitely going in the basket...

                                The other beers don't interest me...

                                PS: if they had the regular Must Kuld, stock up on those... Much better...

                                  Oh and just because it has apricot and Westmalle yeast: I'd give that Avery Apricot Sour a go…

                                    I think any Avery beer is worth a try, just as a general principle.  The apricot sour is quite good.  I'm not a big ginger or vanilla fan, so I haven't tried those two.

                                      @Seul @Chris thanks gents… I´m increasingly of the opinion that Avery are a "good" brewery. I'm having the vanilla stout for sure... I'm a fan of ginger but not apricot but I may try them both.

                                      The Múre was about $20 a 750ml bottle, not awful. The most expensive of those I posted was the De Mortagne at nearly $30 for 500ml. So I'm quite happy to skip it...  ???

                                        Made a mistake: that's the Põhjala Talveöö, not the Jöuluöö… But same exact intel for that: on the list, eager to try it...

                                            I wouldn't call it my favorite. But for a light beer this isn't bad and has a high alcohol content for a light beer. It's not watered down shit water.
