    Good Morning, BAs. Starting of the morning right: a Schöfferhofer shandy, followed by a NY bagel with a cream cheese schmear. Delicious! Raining here, but who cares?



    Stay Safe and Sláinte!

    Good morning BAs. Walked the dogs at 7:20 this morning and it was 70 with 98% humidity...glad we got the A/C up and running! Today’s eye opener is Prairie’s “Bourbon Paradise” (2019):

    [​IMG]

    Poured at 57 degrees; fast fizzy dark reddish tan head disappears quickly, poor retention leaving only a small island of micro dots and a thin ring sitting atop jet black liquid with ruby/cola edges; a few small suds of lace and heavy legs that sheet the snifter upon swirl. Nose is roast malt, bourbon and the barest whiff of coconut; boozy exhale. Semi sweet chocolate entry followed by a hint of toasted coconut and a tease of bourbon; middle is vanilla, charred oak, and chocolate fudge; mix of bittersweet dark chocolate, coconut and vanilla in the finish. Silky smooth feel, medium body, light carbonation; warmth in the mouth from 13.7% with a boozy bite on the tongue. Overall, much mellower than I expected, and the feel is thin; it’s well balanced, but the flavors are subtle, where the booze is not...

    4.5 | 4.25 | 4.5 | 4.25 | 4.5

    Score: 4.42 rDev: -3.7%

    An excellent beer and highly enjoyable, but hard to say it’s worth the premium plus price, which I gladly pay for Prairie’s other BA imperial stouts. And, imo, the coconut fades fairly quickly in regular Paradise, and at about 5 months old, the coconut in this Bourbon Paradise is barely present and accounted for...so my recommendation is to enjoy these beers now, brothers and sisters of the Now - Cheers!

    Ok, WTF!?? I apparently can’t quote the right part of a @mschrei post (should’ve been the part about wasted beer). What and idiot!


    Anyhow, still raining here, so another, lighter beer this AM:

    Because I didn't care for it. Now, since I can't travel as freely as normal to find beers, I have to settle for basically what I can find locally which means that sometimes I retry stuff I didn't enjoy.
