    Sierra Nevada Ovila with plums. Banana Laffy Taffy aroma reminds me of durian.

    I've actually been wanting to try this for a while now, but I've seen it twice on this list :slight_frown: maybe i shouldn't bother?

    Regret nothing that you have done. Only that which you haven't done.

    Tart of Darkness.......not my thing, especially not at 20 dollars a bottle.

    Also Westy 12, went through too much to get that, and it's not even the best quad i've had...

    Joe's Coffee Porter, I like porters and I like coffee but this is a drain pour. It tasted like cold weak coffee with some beer poured in. The only good thing was, I only bought one bottle.

    I don't understand drainpours. I mean, I've tasted vaginal discharges that I wasn't particularlly fond of, but I manned up. I didn't wanna embarrass her.

    CBC Great Pumpkin Ale. It is a 4.5% session pumpkin ale, but to have less flavor than Polar Pumpkin Seltzer (no really I tried them side by side) is a bit odd, even for a BMC beer. That said, I've liked every other CBC beer I have tried.

    just one over my return to beer these last three months:

    Southern Star Old Potentate

    hate saying it because it's a regional beer in Conroe, and i'd love for the company to do well, but the beer is either no good or definitely not my style.

    Brandy barrel aged Angel's Share. I would have rather burned $15.00 to stay warm on this winter evening

    I didn't mind Leinies Shandy's they were pretty decent

    I think the one I regretted buying was Flying Monkey's Hoptical illusion, if you love really hoppy beer it would be something you'll like, but it almost seemed like it made beer more of a sipping drink or an aperitif

    Two of my personal favorites. Although Storm King is by far my favorite Victory beer. Or maybe the Lager. Or maybe 12 or maybe.......... They make good stuff.

    I wouldnt quite say I "regret" buying any beer because I like to try new beers, but I know I will never buy Voodoo Maple Bacon Doughnut. On that note even though Im sure it will be another "dislike" I kind of want to try Wynkoops Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout....

    Sam Adams Infinium, I had to drain pour. Another one I still have in my closet is Rogues Voodoo Maple Bacon Ale. I can't seem to find a reason to open it.
