What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #4792

Another from the box of Costco Christmas delights. A toast to @ipahunter happy birthday

 

Kicking off the evening with this Logboat Rocket Shark Sultan of Allorillo. Good stuff.

 

Celebration inventory getting low. 1 more 12PK? Some soft pretzels from the air fryer .

 

Totally thrilled by the 2024 Headzo, on to a Rev DB VSOR. Also a winner. If it was a head to head, I think Headzo wins for overall. It was the cognac, no doubt, but this DBVSOR is no slouch. An abundance of opulence. Memento mori, Advocates.

 

From earlier..



Cheers, friends!

 

I bought a single and will open this weekend. Like you, I enjoy the base and its barrel aged version. Cheers.

 

BIF Beer from @Ozzylizard . Saint Arnold 2021 Cognac Barrel aged French Press. Amazing head retention and lacing on the glass. Aromas of big nutty medium roasted coffee, milk chocolate, caramel, brown sugar, toffee, toast, cocoa, cognac, oak, and light dark fruit/yeast earthiness. Light booze. Taste of big nutty medium/dark roasted coffee, milk chocolate, cocoa, caramel, brown sugar, toffee, toast, dark bread, cognac, oak, herbal; light dark fruit, smoke, charcoal, peppercorn, pine, and yeast earthiness. Medium pine/char bitterness and cognac/oak spiciness on the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; balanced creamy/silky malt, chalky char roast, and oak tannins in the mouthfeel. Lingering resin/tannic dryness after the finish with spicy alcohol. No cloying sweetness, a lot of oak character. Very smooth sipping, light lingering booze warmth after the finish of 9.3%. Very impressive imperial English-ish porter, still a ton of coffee there and great malt complexity. 4.13/5


Cheers

 

Getting giggly yet, Ian?

 

Mrs. Powell started putting up Christmas stuff, so let's get festive

In theory this might've made this down here. But this is from my Kansas haul

 

Im also eagerly waiting to see how take off goes.
60??? I would be walking around my backyard naked

 

Last hold out in my yard and just refuses to drop its leaves. Some amazing beautiful colors thoughNewburgh brown ale

 

I am still reviewing in good mindset. My tolerance is pretty high though. But it is coming through very nice.

 

First Celebration of the season for me.

 

Cheers, LNBA!

We had one of those at our house in Oklahoma, vivid colors. It was by our Koi Pond, but between the racoons & neighborhood cats them fish never stood a chance

 

Cheers!
