Sump Coffee Stout

This is an interesting practice to go through. The rating doesn't seem to accurately represent how I feel as I preferred Sump to BCBCS as far as coffee stouts go yet gave a higher rating to BCBCS. Really depends on your mood that day I guess.

 

Out of 1280 beers rated:

FW PNC Imperial Buckwheat Stout - 5
Heady Topper - 5
Mott the Lesser - 4.83
Vanilla Rye - 4.8
Supplication - 4.77
Pliny the Elder 4.75
BCBCS - 4.75
Zombie Dust - 4.75
Abyss - 4.72
Huna - 4.72

Would be interesting to go back and rate some of those again. Based on how tastes change and considering some of the other great beers I've had since tasting all of those I'd be curious to see if they all stood up to the scores previously given.

Yes, perhaps too much Connecticut bias. So. Worth noting that I only started logging at the beginning of 2015, so I still have a lot of beasts that I need to revisit in order to give them a fair rating--Bourbon County Coffee, Julius, Abner, Double Citra and Double Sunshine to name some.
