Yule Mælk Bourbon Barrel Aged (2019) Grimm
Having sat on this a few years, feel it remains a 4.25, still pretty fucking great, didn't age quite as gracefully as I'd hoped.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2017) Grimm
2018 after three years was pretty breathtaking. This is also great but I can't help but feel five years is a bit too long.

Not a lot of barrel, hazelnut is lovely though. Relatively dry, smooth, medium bodied, quite roasty, a healthy level of bitterness, fudgy chocolate, pretty nice. And the nose is spectacular.

Yule Mælk Aged In Rum Barrels (2019) Grimm
I liked the bourbon barrel slightly more but this was also excellent. Really wish I had another of each to see what they'd be like in a few years.

Astonished I hadn't checked this in before. Still a very solid beer.

A little underwhelming this year. Not a lot of barrel character. Roasty, nice coffee notes, berries, chocolate, a little on the bitter side, even a little salty at times. A little thin and quick too. Still good, just not great.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018) Grimm
I'm thinking age actually didn't do this guy many favors. Still good, just feels like a shadow of itself.

Couldn't get a good picture of the bottling date. I'm amazed. This has matured beautifully. It's mellow, harmonious, and surprisingly smooth in spite of its considerable alcohol presence. I've enjoyed only a small handful of stouts more.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2020) Grimm
It has its moments, it's still excellent, but I know I've had stronger vintages.
