    Drinking some Traquair Jacobite

    Listening to some Bill Evans


    I think this is my favorite Evans live album. Eddie Gomez is amazing on base. Better than Scott LaFaro IMO.

    Anyway, love me some Jacobite. Really one of the most unique beers I think I have ever had, still after all these years.

    How does the arcadia stack uo against the ba boris? boris is one of my faves, and we just got in the arcadia today... dunno if worth it to pull the trigger.

    Checking out 2012 Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Cherry Stout...hmmm...vinegar notes on the nose, slightly sour on the palate, yes definitely infected.

    OK, I just went half and half with an Optimator and a Torpedo. Sounds horrible, eh? Not so fast, my friends. Malt plus hops equals...very interesting. Don't knock it till you've tried it. Might just be the wave of the future. or not...dunno.

    I like the Boris better. IMO the arcadia was to much over the top. Boris has a nice balance of taste and alcohol which works well. Paid $7 for the arcadia bottle, love tasting something I've never had but would pic the Boris hands down.

    No doubt. This years Bourbon Barrel Stout is excellent. Their base beer is lower abv when compared to other BA brews e.g. BCBS. Infection is much more likely to happen with an ingredient like cherries.
