    Almost forgot, Damn. I guess I get to clock in under the bell. Finishing up my Friday night watching the Raven and having a Hipster Brunch. Thanks @NHNS4 for this one.

    Everything tonight was awesome. No trace of tartness from the Bruery bottle, though I still think Oakshire came out on top this evening. That said, it's hard to call anything a loser tonight, even the non-BA beers that aren't pictured.

    and isn't it amazing?

    edit: also, if you're looking for the best russian imperial stout you'll ever have, find Cuvee Delphine's base beer, Black Albert.

    Had a 2016 KBS last night, great coffee flavor, was lighter on the barrel than I expected, was very similar to this years SMS I thought

    My first time trying Parabola. Pretty good, a bit sweet.

    My contribution to barrel aged Fridays, started this right when I got home, bourbon has faded, definitely more tart than I remembered with a nice touch of chocolate, has aged well.

    After some talk of "infection and off flavors" decided I should drink my last one. Drinking just fine for me although not as good as fresh. Lots of chocolate, coffee and maple still there.

    Tonight's selection is...guess what. I had 2 small 2016 drafts at one of my local watering holes then cracked a 2015 bottle when getting home.

    However I am trying something very interesting now: my wife didn't quite finish her Death by Coconut, so I now have a 2/3 KBS, and 1/3 DBC. Clean mineral coconut start with the barrel and burn at the end. Very interesting...
