    I am sure that Pils is unbelievable….their lager game is intense. Love that place, so glad they rebuilt.

    The old place pre-Helene reminded me of the River Speyside distillery Glen Grant's cask dungeon we visited 20 years ago; the new place is very nicely done.
    I recommend Zillicoah to any lagerhead visiting the Asheville area.

    Revolution Brewing -- Deep Wood Series: Dethurana
    Imperial stout aged in bourbon barrels
    ABV: 14.1 %; pouring temperature: 39.0 ℉; canning info: 01/07/26
    Source: Tavour

    [​IMG]

    4.55/5 rDev +2.5%
    look: 4.25 | smell: 4.75 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5

    Clear, dark brown pour, body appears opaque in the glass; thick, light tan head, creamy look with a gently rolling topography. Milk chocolate, ginger, and cinnamon nose; exotic, earthy spices; vanilla and milk chocolate. Boozy and spicy flavor; cinnamon and sandalwood; bourbon; sweet chocolate. Heavy and sticky mouthfeel; sublime alcohol warmth; oily.

    Ooh, I do like my amburana in a rich and flavorful beer. This one does a fine number with reinforcing my prejudices. As stated on the can label: "familiarly exotic decadence". How I do love to indulge in my sinful ways.



    --------------------------------------------

    ...and for @ChicagoJ: beers like this may make me seriously reconsider hooking up with you in Chicago...while I have more experience with Revolution, Old Irving is also high on my radar for breweries I'd like to visit...

    1) Pilsner Urquell (4.4%): A Czech Pilsner with flavors of lemon, bread, buttery notes.
    versus
    2) Steel Toe Czech Pils (4.9%): A Czech Pils from Minnesota with flavors of lemon, bread, and floral notes. (Correctly matched the two blind)

    Czech Pils Battle. First is Pilsner Urquell. Buttery salty notes. Incredibly smooth. The gold-standard.
    Next is Steel Toe Pils. A bit more lemon and hops here. Not quite the same as Urqell.
    Winner: Pilsner Urquell

    Proof or it didn't happen.

    That's enough of God's dandruff pics for one day around here. But seriously...my sympathies.

    A lil Half Acre SPPPAAACCCEEE to switch up your cosmic vibe on a Monday.

    Rest day is the best day.

    Cheers! *taps out*

    It's 55 and sunny with wind gusts to 24 mph in northwest central FL. They predict a low of 30 tonight then back to about 60 - 75 by the weekend when Daytona Beach bike week starts, Head Hunter.
