George! Barrel Aged Bourbon W

That aged pretty well. Starts BBA and ends sort of chocolate chalk. This venue was near where I parked to take CalTrain so had to visit.

Sweet Repute W

Wheaty as hell. The maple is only a smidge on the tail. Bourbon is in the middle. I like it mostly because it's different. This is my third wheat wine, but have to imagine this is a rare type for most.

Breakfast Stout (2015) W

Does a breakfast stout age well? Not really. This nine year old tastes different, but not better (or worse, to be sure). The head is complex, but the taste is less so.

Drink'in The Sun (0.3%) W

Bought this for a new style and to share with my untapp'd friends tomorrow. It's not bad at all. And it's a NA Danish Hefeweizen.

Punkin Ale W

While I'm a pumpkinphile, this isn't great.Worse yet, I'm committed to five more. Side story. At Whole Foods, Hit by the Sugar Cubes was playing. I thought that was pretty unusual and was thinking surely some clever person added it for Roe v. Wade. . .

Porter W

Hard to believe I've never logged this fine example of a great porter. Good taste with a lightly sweet tail. This is the perfect starter porter.

Oude Geuze Boon W

Now I can say things like, "when it comes to lambics, I prefer framboise to geuze". It would sound better in French. As for the beverage, despite being 7%, it's sort of like flavored water. Lots of subtly.

Más Agave W

It's called "mas agave" because it needs more agave. The lime is the predominant flavor. Very unassuming for a 10%.

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa W

Celebrating my 1000th hike with the generous leftovers. The bottled version is much better than it was on tap. Less cinnamony.

Tiny glass. Cinnamon is generally not a great addition.

Siracusa Nera W

It tastes a lot like Syrah--not subtle in the least.
