Other Half (2019)

Yeah. Mentions it on the release post too

 

Am i losing my mind or did BeerAdvocate take away the media post option?

 

$22 for a 500ML yeesh

 

Definitely losing my mind. Could have sworn I checked last night and saw no mention of lactose.

yeah not sure what’s going on

 

Maple Bourbon Barrel Aged Double Sunset Imperial Stout with Milk Sugar (13%) We selected the 2 barrels we loved most and held them aside for packaging without coffee or vanilla. Pure Maple Bourbon Barrel. $22 per bottle, 1 bottle per person.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Maple Bourbon Barrel Aged Double Sunset Imperial Stout With Ethiopian Worka Coffee, Vanilla and Milk Sugar (13%) We aged this batch of Double Sunset for a year in Maple Bourbon barrels and then conditioned it on heaps of @mudhousecoffeeroasters Ethiopian Worka coffee, which is rich in blueberry character, and vaniilla. It's like a bourbon chocolate maple syrup infused coffee. Perfect for morning or bed time. $22 per bottle, 1 bottle per person.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Double Sunset Imperial Stout with Ethiopian Gesha Village Lot 27 Coffee, Vanilla and Milk Sugar (13%) The folks @mudhousecoffeeroasters clued us in to this small lot of extremely high qualtiy Ethiopian Gesha coffee when we were getting ready to make a new batch of Double Sunset. It isn't cheap so we only made a small amount of this version of our favorite coffee imperial stout. This beautiful coffee has amazing and complex flavors from lychee and pear to rose water. $18 per bottle, 1 bottle per person.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
All Death Everything Chocolate Covered Toasted Marshmallow Hazelnut Maple Ice cream Imperial Stout (15%) w/ @northernmonk Maybe not death, but perhaps a dessert coma? Our friends from Northern Monk came through and helped us jam this stout full of Cacao nibs, hazelnuts, marshmallow, maple, vanilla and ice cream. $16 per bottle, 6 bottles per person.

 

That's like the normal price for their BA stuff now. Maple bourbon lactose vanilla imperial stout sounds sickeningly sweet.

 

Some of these beer names are about to give Evil Twin a run for their money.

 

It definitely didn't. They added it.

 

Ill try it on tap if I get the urge to test drive it. $22 for slighty more than 1 beer in terms of ounces is too much for me

 

The mules must be losing their minds with those limits.

 

Was hoping for a nice drop of something today. SCE or the like would have been the bees knees.

Tomorrow is shaping up to be a shitshow.

 

So the stouts sounded good until the tose showed up and of course the one without has a bunch of sugary adjuncts in its place.

 

I was really hoping for something like that, I guess there's no ig story yet so maybe I'll keep my fingers crossed for a silent/late announced drop.

 

@NewmansOwn - congratulations on your early retirement

well, @NewmansOwn retirement party at the old tap room?

 

So what are the odds that EQ sends down some of the collab cans for tomorrow?

I'm guessing slim to none, but I'm an optimist to a fault!

 

I’d imagine it’ll be like last year where it’s a surprise Saturday/Sunday drop

 

If this weekend's surprise drop doesn't feature a Thanksgiving Leftover Crunchee Imperial Berliner Weisse brewed with turkey giblets, bread dressing, creamed onions, garlic mashed potatoes, string beans, candied yams, cranberry sauce, and some obligatory milk sugar, then I'd argue these guys are losing their edge and don't deserve so much as a fraction of the attention that they receive.

I hope never to meet you if only so that I can always pleasantly imagine that this is what you actually look like.
