    A few months ago, I had Bomb on tap. The taptender indicated that they had aged the keg 6 months, and it really brought out the peppers.

    I like Pirate Bomb more than regular.

    That sounds like an amazing start to a vacation! I am a big fan of #jacksabby. It is a major problem that the brewery is less than a mile from my gym. Sounds like our wallets are thinking the same thing. Wallets are so much smarter than we are...

    BCBS was best when sold in 12 oz 4-packs. 2009 bombers and 2015 500 ml were not my favorites.

    The Bruery weekdays are solid, but this year Mocha Wednesday was not my favorite. Maybe it needed some more time. I am a big fan of Hawaiian speedway. There was so much coconut and vanilla. The coffee was there too.

    yeah honestly I havent tried any of the other bruery stouts in that line but I would really like to ... I just found Mocha Wed to be so rich and I loved the barrel notes - plus I thought the alcohol was completely hidden on the palate which is just ridiculous given the abv. The speedway was flippin wonderful I really hope I come across that stuff again.

    I second pêche mortel. I'd never even heard of this until I had it on tap at a hotel in Quebec last year (what can I say, I can't keep up with all these damn beers). It's only like $2.50 a bottle there too in stores. Now I'm hooked

    Cassian Sunset was best of the Central Waters releases..better than any of their other BA Reserve Series..thought it was just as good as CW 18 to tell the truth...having one right now btw

    There were a few new BA Framinghammers this year including Brandy and Mole. Brandy was one of my favorite right behind PB&J and Coffee. Many people liked the Mole the best. The only one I did not really care for was the BA Framinghammer this year. It was great previous years though.

    I would drink that nonstop if it was $2.50 a bottle. We get to enjoy it for $6.95 a bottle.

    I really liked CW16, 17, & 18. Had a Cassian and it didn't favor my palate the way I thought it would. Glad you are enjoying one though!

    How much does BASS go for on average any way. I just spent $50 on a bottle at a bottleshop. I'm certain I overpaid.

    Now I think Old Rasputin is overrated, but on nitro tap it's divine. Nitro is a real cheat for imperial stouts.

    5 pages and no mention of Ozark BDCS?!?! (Sorry if anyone mentioned this and I overlooked it). Super bourbon-forward but also blew me away with the flavor. I had heard a lot of hype and it didn't disappoint.
