Beer helps me pack and the packing is going very slow. Might need more beer. Enjoy the juniper in this. Works well with IPA. Thanks Kevin E.

All Day Crimson Sky M

Pretty good beer. The session beers do sacrifice some flavor for lightness. I get it. Thank you Dave K.

All Day Haze M

Pretty good. Definitely a low ABV. Wasn’t sure how to score, somewhere between 3.0 to 3.75. It would all depend on the environment. Thank you Dave K.

This is awesome. Really good. Barrel aging and whiskey come through perfectly without over-dominance.

Belgian Twist M

Dave H. , I believe I got this from you. Thank you. It’s a light colored Belgian so it must be one of the odd numbers. I think Don D. might even like this.

I wonder if they tapped the correct keg. Tastes like a sweet cider. Taster from my son.

Wow! Aging has enhanced this beer a lot. I thought it was great when it was fresh, only better now. Very smooth.

Velvet Rush M

When I read the description of chocolate, vanilla extract, milk sugar, it concerned me. So often brewers think you need to be slammed in the face with the adjuncts or it’s not good. This is very good. Well brewed. Thanks Dave H.

DKML M

This is from 2017. Been sitting in the beer fridge but afraid to try after the years almost forgotten. It held up. I now recall the alcoholic and woody tastes. Be good if I were stuck on a highway in a blizzard. Not a fan of this.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2019) M

Found this in the beer fridge at The Drunken Shamrock. Let the bottle sit about 45 minutes before opening. Mellowed out since 2019. This place has a great beer selection. 😀

Slightly Mighty M

Got this for my wife. She likes this. I’m trying one. Light body and the hops do not overtake the beer in a bad way like so many session IPAs. It’s so easy to over hop a light body beer.

Very good beer. Thank you William the Dr B. I know the score is worth much higher but tonight I’m working on my bell curve. 😂 Everything tonight gets a 3.25, unless it’s a Boulevard Brewing Co Ginger Lemon Radler, I’ll go against tonight’s rule with 0.25

Panther Cub (2021) M

This beer will add hair to certain places. Big ass beer. Taste beer, with vanilla and maple as advertised on the label. The barrel action is in the background. Nothing overdone stupid. Very good beer. Thanks William the Dr B. Great day outside.

Backwoods Bastard (2016) M

Grabbed this bastard from the beer fridge thinking it might be a 2019. Upon opening I see the 2016 vintage. Never had one age that long. It did VERY well. I’ll do that again. Fantastic!!!

Santa's Little Helper (2016) M

How exciting. Great beer. Glad I write the vintage on the cap. The consume by date is 2025. Getting a head start on Christmas to get this year finished and close out this decade. This aged very well. I have a big bottle to suck down. This from Dave H. ???
