    Deschutes Obsidian Stout, love this one as always but don't see if very often anymore.

    More Jan Garbarek, this time on Keith Jarrett's album Arbour Zena. Also with Charlie Haden and an entire orchestra...

    Hard to believe River has been gone so long. Imagining him four years younger than me now is tough.

    Had that one the first year they came out with it. Not good back then. My overall review:

    "This is a below average Marzen. Appearance sets an unfortunate tone. It is cloudy, muddy looking. Head retention was non existent. Low on flavor and aroma. Graininess is almost an off aroma. Thin, almost watery mouth feel. Lacks the expected malt complexity, with pronounced toasty notes. It does not taste bad, it is just not appealing."

    Hoped they would make it better but sounds like not so much.

    Indeed. That entire night could have been avoided. I need another drink.

    Molotov Cocktail by Evil Twin. Quite the nose on this one and no sign of the 12%. Cheers.

    Happy Saturday ba. Running through some tree house whales (for me that is) over the next week. Starting here with Bright Citra, dipa. Wow, crazy smooth, fruit is not overpowering, and just a nice clean hop punch. 10/16/24,

    Firestone Walker Brewing Co. -- Elite Barrel Series - Paraboloid
    Imperial stout aged two-years in 14-18 year old whiskey barrels
    ABV: 15%; pouring temperature: 42 °F; bottling info: 2022 Vintage №.1; beer cap: BEER BEFORE GLORY
    Source: unknown

    4.34/5 rDev -3.3%
    look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25

    This is a spiffy little big beer. Two years of age haven't hurt the appeal of this beer (makes me wonder how it would have been opened shortly after its release). Dense, rich, and silky with some great smell. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for another version of this beer.

    Some Wormtown Wet-Hop English IPA, straight from the source. This is a tap-room exclusive. Quite different and very good - delicious. I picked up two 4 packs while I was there today.

    Did an overnight at the Field Museum last night. Slept with Sue the T-Rex (background, for clarification).
