    Thank you @brewgentlemen for hosting, @greg4579 for setting it up, @shuggy for the Blushing Monk, and @dtx00 for bringing a hilariously long-time unfulfilled tick of mine. I wish I could've stayed longer, but I did have one of the most efficient hours of beer drinking of my entire life. Hope everyone had a great time, and that we can start doing these things more regularly (maybe even on a Sunday sometime so us service industry folk can hang?).

    Any favorites from yesterday?

    Although chile stouts are not really in my wheelhouse, I appreciated getting to try all of those together. I thought Abraxas really stood out in the group.

    I really enjoyed MBCP and thought it was quite an interesting beer.

    FFaC was a long time want and thought it lived up to the hype and was the best American Wild Ale.

    I thought Humbolt Range was the top IPA for the day.

    I find Rum treatments don't always turn out as well as bourbon or whiskey, but I thought Rum King was really good. I remember seeing it but I somehow missed Borris Van Wink. I always love BA Blackout and it was great to try the 2010 next to the 2015.

    Cuvée St Gilloise was really good as well.

    For the barleywines, old ales and American Strong Ales I thought the BA Old Ruffian was tops.

    Worst of the day went to the 5 Sciences. I had it at the last Voodoo release and thought it was quite good, but that bottle was nothing but burnt band aids.

    Boris Van Wink: I was unaware that I needed to be the one to open my bottle. It ended up going back home with me.

    FfaC was pretty spectacular.

    Was Humboldt the only ipa you had? As expected I disliked it immensely.

    No worries on the Boris Van Wink, I have a buddy with a bottle. I just recalled seeing it on the table and thinking I wanted to try it. No, Humbolt was not the only IPA, but in fairness I tend to like Roundabout's IPAs. Thanks again for muling the Blushing Monk @shuggy. What did you like besides FFaC?
