    Pretty sure this one is brewed with the dibeetus. Rumpkin is another that I feel I need insulin while drinking.

    Stone Old Guardian for me. It's just so thick and full bodied that I found it hard to choke it down... and I drink a lot of RIS.

    Sierra Nevada Maple Stout, it was fantastic but it was work for me to finish.

    I really think this is the most over rated beer I have had. Honestly was really hard to get HALF WAY through, if I had paid for it, I would have been mad but it was left behind by a buddy of mine.

    Stone IRS usually puts me under by the time I finish the bomber.

    DFH WWS was a long slog to finish as well.

    Southern Tier Brewing Company - Crème Brule.
    Just too rich and sweet, I was drinking water after every two sips.

    Tasty beer, but a chore to finish. I split a 12oz with a friend and struggled.

    Southern Tier Creme Brulee is awesome sauce...!!! But, yeah, I only had a sample at the brewery. No, really, it was delicious but wholly shit a bomber would f$#@ you up! So, yeah, I get it...:astonished::grimacing::grinning:

    It was a struggle to get through the Labatt Prohibition Series barrel aged something or other... back in my BMC days Labatt was one of the better brews but this stuff was nasty!

    So agree with Creme Brûlée...eventually became a drain pour...oddly agree with habanero sculpin..I had it at the brewery fresh, was not as spicy as the the bottle form...i think my lips even swelled up from the bottle lol

    Love both, but even with one other person the last few sips of NG Raspberry Tart and Belgian Red can be tough. So much fruit.

    For me it's the 750ml sours. Cantillon, Bruery, and others. The big beers from Bruery can also be tough - Black Tuesday, Chocolate Rain. That said, I'm always up for the challenge!
