    I'm completely unafraid of a drain pour. Simply won't waste my time with something I'm not enjoying that much. What's the point? It's the cost of experimentation.
    Recents:
    Bootlegger's Knuckle Sandwich
    Avery Maharaja (similar reasons to the above, I suppose)
    Bruery 5 Golden Rings (this only managed two sips. Vile)

    Drain pours are so hipster.

    DFH Fort. I made it through half the bottle and couldn't take anymore. Sweet, boozy mess of a beer.

    Adam from the Stone... I'm sorry if people liked it, but it just wasn't good. It was also fresh, so the hops really came through, and I hate strong hop presence in old ales/barleywines.

    It was not so bad. I started to really get the full taste after about 20 minutes as it warned up. I split it with 3 others so 3oz took me a bit to finish. No rush to open the rest of the four pack. If I opened one alone I might not be able to finish it.

    Enjoy

    I'm glad I only grabbed one bottle. The warmer it got, the nastier it became. It was really bad IMO.

    I recently drain-poured Terrapin Liquid Lunch. I really, really tried to at least make it through it but couldn't. The strange, artificial jelly taste was just too much. Otherwise, I really never drain-pour. I think the only other time I did was when I realized that I'm not a "pumpkin beer" person.

    Don't drink it if you really don't like it.

    Duchesse de Bourgogne. I've had this one before but this was a beat bottle for sure. Instantaneous toilet pour reflex came out.

    For me, by far one of the most disgusting beers I've ever had. And, it was the first sour I ever tried. Needless to say, it turned me off the style entirely for a bit.

    AB's Best Damn Root Beer. I wanted to try the new hard sodas so I can better describe them to customers. It started off light and crisp, then flowed into the notes of gym locker and feet. So bad.

    One night I had two Rocheforts, the 10 and the 6. They both had this really sharp, nail polish remover flavor. I knew that it had to be bad bottles and it's just my luck that I got two bad bottles from two different styles! Both of them, down the drain.

    Cobra Brewing Kitchen Sink.

    Their anniversary beer, as I understand it. Awesome label, awesome name, awesome adjuncts (whiskey soaked cocoa nibs and vanilla beans).

    Was bad - sour. Had to have been a bad bottle. Was a disappointment, for sure.
