    Fucking president is playing golf while I'm trying not to be jealous of this guy? And I can't even drink or smoke pot for a week after a tooth extraction? They didn't say anything about microdosing[​IMG]

    Held onto this for as long as I could as I haven't wanted to depart from it.

    Thanks to @Dbonified for this extra.

    Cheers as I sip this and await a late burger lunch...

    Good evening dear Advocates.

    Dugges (SWE) - BOXED IDJIT - Barrel Aged Imperial Stout (12,10%)

    Bottle of 2015 or 2016 from my home cellar.
    Expiry date 06/09/2021.
    Barrel Aged version for 11 months in barrels of the Swedish distillery "Angermannian Box Destilleri AB" of their Imperial Stout (BIG IDJIT)
    On the nose bourbon, wood, roasting.
    Impenetrable black color, zero foam but there is a slight white patina that remains on the surface.
    Fluid body, absolutely not dense.
    Flat beer there is hardly any caebonation.
    It falls too easily, masking the 12.1%.
    In the hole notes of bourbon whiskey, wood, coffee, tobacco and in the background also dark chocolate.
    Dry, roasted finish.
    Zero ethyl.
    Alcohol masked very well.
    To be served with cigar or dark chocolate.
    Excellent balance, beer evolved according to and over time.
    The body I expected different ... instead it is very light (too much ?!).
    Overall a masterpiece, especially for the elegance and balance it manages to give to its complexity.
    I drank a young one and compared to that it certainly seems to have evolved over time.

    My favorite American Barleywine ever, fantastic stuff.

    Shame on you for setting foot in that establishment :stuck_out_tongue:!

    I keep having to edit this post! Never thought I'd see the day that you have something vaguely positive to say about BrewDog :stuck_out_tongue:.

    I had a leftover gyro that my buddy had in his fridge for breakfast, and it was bomb. I might order dinner from the place tonight.

    Trubble Draconian. Very nice Scotch ale. Deep opaque ruby brown color. Solid head retention/lacing. Aromas and flavors of big caramel, brown sugar, toasted biscuit, chocolate, cocoa, coffee, raisin, plum, fig, red apple, herbal, wood, grass, pepper, and yeast earthiness. A bit too fruity/yeasty aromas. Light herbal, woody, grassy, peppery, roasted bitterness on the finish. Light-medium carbonation and medium-plus body; creamy/bready/grainy malts, light sticky hops and chalky roast. Lightly increasing lingering bitter dryness, no cloying sweetness. Minimal warming 7.4%. A bit too roasty for the style, but not overwhelming. Nice balance between rich malts and fruit yeast; with solid hops. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. Well made style example. 3.88

    Illinois BAs, based on my drive home in the right lane of I-43 going north yesterday, and watching the amount of cars with Illinois license plates pass me in the left lane going 100 MPH, is Illinois currently empty? I don't usually like American black metal, but I love this song!
