    Incredible stuff. Aromas and flavors of huge juicy limes, citrus peel/zest, lemon, peach, pear, melon, apricot, red/green apple, white grape/wine, sea salt, vanilla, tequila, toasted oak, hay, straw, and grass; with moderate honey, agave, wheat, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit malt sweetness; light peppercorn, lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness, fruit tang; light zesty bitterness, and tequila/oak tannin spiciness on the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; very creamy, silky, bready wheat; some lactic acid/fruit tang; light oak tannins, and salinity in the mouthfeel. Lightly increasing acidic/tangy/tannin dryness; zero cloying/pucker. Insanely smooth/soft, not overly lactic/salty. Minimal warming 10%, zero barrel booze. Perfectly balanced between juicy/vibrant limes, Lacto complexity, agave, and tequila barrel presence/integration; with a nice sized rich pale/wheat malt backbone against acidity. Not overly sweet/heavy from lingering dryness. Just as impressive as the Sierra Nevada one, but richer from the high ABV. I am buying at least 2 more packs. This was everything I hoped it would be.

    Good morning, BAs! It’s a perfect June day here. Wish it would stay like this all summer. Haven’t had a beer in almost a full week, so will be drinking through my fresh hops today. Starting with this one, canned 5/16.

    Good morning Beer Advocates.

    Trying out this Tyranena Rocky's Revenge Bourbon Barrel Brown.

    [​IMG]


    It's got chocolate and nuts and roasted malts, both virtually identical in palate and aroma, but it was only half-barrel aged and I don't see the point in that. Don't expect any barrel out of this one!! 3.43 out of 5

    That is actually a very good beer. I had it at a homebrew share in February, I don't think anyone was underwhelmed in the slightest.

    That glassware seems to match up with the title of your beer. Somehow, I see it.

    Amazing batch this year as usual. Fantastic lasting rocky head retention/thick foamy lacing. Aromas and flavors of huge tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, and pine hops; with moderate honey, toasted biscuit malts; and herbal, floral, grassy hop earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation/body, and fairly crisp finishing. Balanced creamy/bready/grainy malts, sticky hops, and some resins/rinds in the mouthfeel. Light-moderate increasing resin dryness, no hop astringency. Very smooth, not overly aggressive, no warmth of 7.6%. Feels like Simcoe, Citra, Galaxy. Extremely juicy, vibrant, dank, and earthy balanced hop complexity; with a great clean bready pale malt backbone. Mild residual sweetness with lingering crisp resin dryness. Got 2 packs already, and would buy more. Just as impressive as it ever was since the beginning.

    Hmmm ok, but if that video is an example, I don't know what to say. I've seen it before and I still don't know if it's real or a lame spoof

    It's been a lazy Saturday morning. Perfect for sipping coffee and contemplating the day. Perhaps some Duvel later.

    Drinking a PBR early this morning. Too lazy to take a picture. Going to a church thing shortly but I’ll be back later.
