      Personally I think the regular BCBS has dropped in quality since 2014. I haven't bought any 2017 and don't really plan on it, there are other stouts that I think are more worthwhile.
      Drank these over the weekend.
      2016 Jester King Saison Americane. Great with a year on it, tastes more in line with other JK beers: funky, hay, tart. They released another batch so I need to get another bottle.

      Austin Beerworks x Odell Ski Jeans. Poking fun at "session" IPAs with this being 7.5%, really malty and flavorful. 4 pack is already gone, might seek out another.

        @Chris:

        Bought this one two years in a row now.  Don't think I'll do it again next year.  For someone who likes the style, it might be great, but I'm just not into it

        it’s definitely not for everyone. I love that shit. That looks ice cold. That stuff is meant to be served at cellar temp.

        Maybe so. Maybe not

            Actually, it looks cellar temperature in a kitchen with 80% humidity.

                  This beer is fantastic. And at 12$ a six pack it can't be beat.

                    Just started getting Cigar City distribution here in Texas, picked up a 6 pack to try it out. Solid IPA.

                      Beer’s I have drunk (in the past week).

                      Perfectly OK IPA

                      A classic…

                      More Smuttynose. I enjoyed this a lot.

                      One of my fave Norwegian brewers made a Barleywine. They did a solid job. Fruity at the start, warm and boozy in the middle and slightly bitter at the end. Balanced.

                      Less well balanced, but a bit more action:

                          Cheeky bugger…  😃 That averages less than one beer a night. One of them was only 7%ABV too  😛

                              You’re good [emoji1] To be fair I’ve just done in my first beer of the weekend and it was only 5pm. Started big…

                              This be actually made me happier than it should have done. Imho Brew Dog have lost the plot in recent years due to their rush to commercialism, but this is a really solid tasty milk stout.

                                i like a good milk stout. there's a local brewery here that i frequent that makes a coffee milk stout. growler fills only so you "must" buy a 32oz or 64oz bottle… its called "coffee breath" and its fantastic. made by New England Brewing Company. \

                                Five pm Shmive pm. you drink when you want damn it.

                                    Probably a bad sign when you consider a 7% ABV beer refreshing but that’s what this was:

                                        I've had five of theirs over the last few months. I automatically pick them up when they come in as I remember your being very happy about getting your hands on some a couple of years ago. It's generally good stuff. On the one hand challenging, but refined at the same time. They have a Trippel brewed with apricot at the monopoly that I need to try. Too dark and cold for it now though.
