    Checking out Marauder, BBA Scotch ale from Great South Bay...

    Not bad at all - solid take on the style - malts are fairly forward, with some dark brown bread and fruit cake elements; bourbon is lightly airy on the palate with pronounced barrel woods lending a nice drying quality to the beer; mild molasses-like sweetness over impressions of booze-soaked fruits with some darker citrus tang... Smooth and mild; little bit of resinous shellac lingers behind but airs out nicely... As I've been drinking it I've been regarding it as quite a nice entry to the style...

    Cheers...

    Changing up my palate before I go back to another stout. Trying out Aloha Sculpin by Ballast Point.

    Will BP never run out of gimmicks? At least this one doesn't rely on adjuncts, instead going with a different yeast strain to help shape the flavor profile.

    Took my wife to the Manchester airport so she could fly to Detroit for her niece's bridal shower. We stopped at Backyard Brewery and Kitchen for lunch. Great place!
    My wife had Lazy Daze IPA and I had Kafija Alus Baltic Coffee Porter.

    Trader Joe's Vintage Ale 2015. I never noticed the "Best By" date.

    I got a few chores done and am watching The Masters. Go Rick-ee!

    Speaking of "Best By", here's something that I listened to 40 years ago.

    Happy Beer Day! Its been awhile since Ive had A Year with the Dr which is a great IPA. This new one 3 Years With Dr Nandu DIPA, single hopped with Mosaic is heaven. They toned down the caramel malts and there is a laser focus on the Mosaic. Money.[​IMG]

    Onto this War Bird by Pipeworks. Always enjoyable. Reminds me of lemon poppyseed bread.
