    [​IMG] This is the perfect way to start a glumy day. 3 day weekend, so one bad day out of 3 ain't bad. Going to one of my favorite Massachusetts bottle shops today, fortunately my account is healthy.

    Happy Friday BAs! Last morning at our hotel in VT, finishing off my growler of Fiddlehead IPA with a rainy breakfast.

    Good morning BA
    I'm making room in the fridge for more Oktoberfest. This is not retired, as listed by BA, but released in this year's fall variety pack. The anniversary beer is really good, the Vienna is good, the regular Oktoberfest is one of the worst I've had and the AAL was nothing special. It's not the worst 12 dollar 12 pack out there for sure.

    DIPA (8%) from The Veil Brewing Company in VA...



    Deep, dark pine takes center stage, with a supporting cast of orchard and tropical fruits... The sweetness is subdued, allowing the smooth bitterness to coat the palate... Medium-light body with modest carbonation, slippery and fast-drinking... Primo stuff... 7/31 canning...

    Leo's latest...

    Here's to the weekend, cheers...

    Surprisingly bright, the hops jump out in an earthy, spicy way and malt quickly follows. Very good first impression. Some floral, hint of conifer, solid without being heavy.

    Solid malt here with hop support. This is bigger, bolder and stronger, a true Imperial brew. The website says 8%, no mention I can find of IBUs, hops are there but not intrusive, certainly not the focal point, malt is main and hops play a supporting role. Mid palate hops arrive and sing the way to the finish. Lots of hops but bitterness is noticeable only in the aftertaste where it lingers just slightly.

    La Trappe Oak Aged batch #27. Picked up a batch of 12 last Wednesday at the La Trappe monastery. I intend to keep some of the bottles for many years and some as gifts.

    In fact it’s La Trappe Quadrupel, the same @JakeScully was having earlier, but this one is aged on oak. The oak varies with each batch, but it’s always awesome.
    Cheers!
