Revolution Brewing (2024)

what's dark matter

 

It's like a cue stick to the pool balls that are the planets of the universe.

Dark (no pun intended) times when ole @HouseofWortship is the one giving the straight answers...

Marty also posting it’s the best VSOJ they’ve ever produced. How could he possibly know until we see how quickly it sells out?

 

Is this Deep Woods or Assassin’s Creed?

 

Per my cryptic posts a while back...I heard that V.S.O.J. is NOT all...perhaps a V.S.O.J. aged in specific barrels could also be appearing this year.

This is 100% 2nd hand information and I could be completely be wrong. However...

 

Normally this would be enough for me, but now I am really curious if you mean something like “exclusively Weller barrels” or if you mean more like VSOVSOPJ (VSOJ in VSOP barrels - so, another spirit. Could be anything, I just appreciate the longer, more confusing acronyms).

 

This might add up. I'll be paying attention to the Twenty Ten Variants, yes indeed.

 

I was thinking cognac

 

Ummm....

 

Have they done cherry SJ before?

 

How did that get in there?

 

10 year beer?

"English Barleywines aged in bourbon and rye whiskey barrels between twelve and twenty-four months establish a base of stone fruit, vanilla, and graham. A blend of sweet and tart cherries lends soft sweetness, acidity, and hue"

 

My brain immediately goes to X. And I sure hope this is an attempt to follow that one up, because it was incredible.

DBVSOJ Cherry Rye was a thing back in 2020ish.

 

Cannot Like Cherry VSOJ enough.

 

one the one hand - hell yeah!

one the other - seems like a waste of a premium and limited product - like having Kobe Steak drizzled with Mole.

 

Way better
