    It's good to be home! This morning I'm trying Stone's "Old Guardian-Extra Hoppy" (2015):

    [​IMG]

    Bottled 1/23/15 with an ABV of 11%.

    First one of these I've tried. Toffee and pine/hops. Boozy. Slick mouthfeel. After 6 months the caramel malt foundation is about even with the "hoppiness" here...in another 6 months we will see what's left of the hop vs. the "barley wine" style. I like the current juxtaposition of malt and hops. I look forward to see how these age!

    The day is young, and so much to do today (you should see the box of mail that has collected in last 3 months!). Cheers!

    Morning, BA's

    Enjoy you day, and stay hydrated in the summer sun!

    This is the "re-booted" version 2.0 - a little more tart and salt - pretty tasty!!

    [​IMG]

    You can tell this is the newer version by this 'instajammer" mark and the December date

    Good morning BAs! Back from the shadows and using my styrofoam box - no more computer pix for a while.

    Very drinkable, just not a lot of flavor or aroma.

    I wonder if they will let me bring something in on lunch break at jury duty. Really need something to pass the time.

    Morning BAs. Last day in NYC and I'm drinking this Omnipollo Fatamorgana I got from @emkay in an IP trade here in the city. He was right, the beer is excellent. Now off to Peekskill Brewery before returning to the city to catch my flight out of town. Good day to all. [​IMG]

    I have not had this beer in a long time. The date on the box said best before october 3 2016. That's pretty fresh I think. Here is the beer.

    So sweetly golden. A shower of sun. Dough and gentle herbs to fill the nose and then the stem. In the drink is the sap. Kind softness, a touch sweet. Forgiving bitter.
