    @MutuelsMark Please report back with a full list of tasting notes. I want to know if this is pancake vomit tasting, or tequila, vodka, wine and cereal vomit tasting. And is it fruity pebbles or Cap’n Crunch or Count Chocula. I need to know if you detected a hint of feet with that blue cheese that tastes like it got blown out of a Caca Hill Residents ass, or if that is horse hay you get before (or after) the hint of ketchup that followed the nausea.

    We need the deets!

    Full disclosure, I have not had an infected 2015 BW, but unlike the stout they all were infected. For awhile, there was someone in the Chicago-based BCBS thread that opened one every year just to see how awful it got. It was always very bad. I was being comical - I’m not sure how bad it will be, but I am confident you won’t want more than a few sips. I’ll send you 2 2017 BCBBWs though if you do finish, and one if you want to try it even if you can’t take more than a sip if you have never had it. I go through your area pretty frequently, and live nearby in Cincinnati.

    Whelp, we did it. popped open the bottle. Nose was very much like vinegar. It had lost all its carbonation. Taste was vinegar with a little death thrown on top. Sink pour unfortunately.
