    While I drink Live Oak all the time, when it gets to be summer, its Live Oak Season. With the amazing Pilz.

    Spinning Ray Charles Genius+Soul=Jazz. One of my favorites from him, and probably one of the best big band albums. The Impulse record label has been doing a bunch of 60 year anniversary stuff this year. Didn't realize this was the first album they released.

    This is a NBW cross-post. This beer is quite special, and it is for a very worth cause! You can see a lot more of my thoughts in the NBW thread.

    Any clothing beyond two sweatshirts and two pairs of socks is probably unnecessary.

    Firestone Walker Brewing Co. -- §ucaba (2018) (barrel-aged American barleywine)

    [​IMG]

    4.19/5 rDev -7.9%
    look: 3.75 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.25

    Revisited 05/29/21 (2018 version) - poured at 62° F

    Original July 02nd, 2014 ratings: 3.75 4.0 4.0 4.0 4.0 (overall was 3.99 at the time of this review).

    The appearance remains much the same. Ditto for the smell; soft and woody with a quiet touch of dark grains. A nice, elevated version of my 2014 sample of the beer. The mouthfeel is rich and sumptuous; very refined and soft.

    Without the original beer and being able to time-travel to sample this 2018 version under the same timeframe and conditions, I can't say how they "truly" compare, yet I do seem to enjoy the taste and, especially, the mouthfeel compared to the 2014 version.

    ----------------------

    Deep, dark cherry red body with a respectable one-finger thick head. Soothing aroma of figs and dates, alcohol, caramel, tobacco. Toasty roasted malt flavor with an equally satisfying boozy warmth; raisins and plums; a cinnamon-like spiciness. Heavy bodied and thick sweetness with a dry element to the feel due to the ABV.

    A well-done take on the barley wine style. Rich, deeply complex flavors, and great sensory experiences with aroma and mouthfeel. This beer was tried two years+ after it's release date and seemed to age well, still packing plenty of punch and delivering exceptional flavors.

    Always love me some Anchor Steam, especially weeks fresh! Always a good one and this is no exception. Really damn good.
