Post a picture of your Latest Beer Haul (2012-2014)

Are you going to try the 2004 WWS or sit on it? I'd be very curious what that is like.

 

I will probably drink it sooner rather than later. I have a bottle of 2008 and a couple 2010's so i would like to find out just where the 2004 is at this point

 

The answer is...fucking excellent. I have three bottles left and it remains the best aged beer I've ever had. Super complex and rounded around the edges. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/10099/2392/?ba=davey101

 

Jesus Christe!

 

You found seven year old WWS on the shelf? What the F?

 

I gotta say, my favorite out of those is definitely the Full Sail Black Gold. I haven't had it in over a year but that's the beer that really got me hooked.

 

^old haul


^new haul

^ who wouldnt want a year old single ipa?

 

I found an entire case, stashed away on the bottom shelf of a cooler where it sat for its whole life. Next to it was a case of '05 raison d'extra, '02 unibroue quelque chose, '99 le coq imperial extra double stout and a few other aged goodies. All of them were marked down. Its a very small package store in the middle of nowhere. Unfortunately I shared this location with a few members and it got wiped clean within a month

 

Excited to try the Jester King Le Petit Prince

 

You got a heck of a deal on that Black OPS.

 

We ripped it up on Long Island tonight to celebrate Evan Day (don't we all deserve our own holiday? go for it...celebrate your half birthday every year...been doing it for 10+ years, tonight was the best):



highlights included:

• Black Note (with Wild One, Raspberry Wild One, Q Falls)
• BA HiFi (2011, regular HiFi, 2012)
• 2009 BA Blackout
• 2012 Lolita
• Uber Fresh Expo Hoppiness and Racer X
• 2009 Bourbonic
• Growler of Capt Law Family and some scope (err...i mean Red & Black)
• Surly 5
• Ry(e)an!!!!!!
• honorable interesting (cough drain-pour) mentions to 2010 Churchill (slightly tart) and 10 year old crustacian (just a bit past it's prime)

HUGE thank you to the Long Island BA's who came out to help me celebrate my favorite holiday of the year. if you are local and weren't here, "converse" with me and let's get you involved. really looking to put together a fluid group of local BA's to share brews regularly.

 

PvW Darklord hands down. Rare and King Henry were great as well. PvW Eclipse and ORF are not in the same league.

 

Isn't that the Bell's Raspberry Ale in the picture, not Raspberry Wild One?

You just dropped the bomb, didn't you!?

 

I'm a mushroom-cloud laying mother f*cker, mother f*cker.

 

I stand corrected
