    Yeah I think that's a fair critique. I sort of wish there was more barrel to counteract the booze itself... as this has warmed up though, the sharp alcohol presence mellowed out and the smell really exploded in a good way. I think most of all I wish there was more maple syrup barrel.

    Getting to try Abner for the first time tonight. It's pretty darn tasty!

    Cheers!

    That is crazy, what did you think? I wish I was a huge fan of either, but I need to wait 10 years for each of them to mellow.

    I had a 2005 WWS back in March and it was fantastic. I'm still not convinced on 120 Minute though...

    Fricking great stuff. Super complex. Now its time to stick it in a dark corner, because every single imperial SN beer turns into an insane beer with age IME.

    Just poured this, and the nose is INSANE. I feel like I just smashed my face into a mango. Taste like a mango too. Awesome. This is unlike any other IPA I have ever had. How did they get so many mangos in there

    I see you've had the red, and the white. Good stuff. But Chimay Blue is God's choice of drank. (I know, I asked Him).

    Too sweet. Lagunitas should stick to the hoppy stuff.
