    Amburana is a criminally underused wood in stouts.

    Can't make the release but there are a few I REALLY hope I can order the next Monday. Amburana is at the very top of the list for sure. I be curious to know more about the Dystopias version since Dystopias is a blend of six barrels and they don't say which they are. Was there stout in all six types of barrel that they then blended?

    Anyway can't wait to see what's left for me!

    An Old Irving collaboration with Maplewood Brewing, Trail Buddies Imperial Stout. Beer looks great, smells and tastes like some artificial peanut flavored candy from my youth. The last 6oz went down the drain I forgot there was a "drain pour" thread. If you like sickly sweet pastry/candy flavored stouts, this is your glass of beer. A waste of 12.5%!

    Think I’ve only ever had Ralphius once, and would love to try it again. I remember it being really good.

    I’ve been hesitant to try this as cherry tends to overpower the other flavors but this is very well executed. Light cherry, nice chocolate, and the base stout is really good too.

    Wegman’s? Now if only they’d bring Weyerbacher Sunday Morning Stout back up here…any Weyerbacher actually.
