Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018) G

Last bottle from the 2018 batch. Smooth, lots of bourbon flavor, warm booziness. Good hit of coffee.

Backwoods Bastard (2014) G

Can smell mellowed oak and boozy caramel. Very smooth. Toffee and molasses up front, a boozy bourbon kick in the finish that has a hint of charred wood. Even after 10 years the booze still builds just a bit too much. Not many better ways to spend $1.99.

All Day IPA G

More flavorful than most session IPAs, though I’m not sure why I rated it quite so high last time.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2023) G

Couldn’t resist on tap. Such a good beer. A newer batch, so still a bit strong with the boozy kick.

Ginger, Spice, Barreled And Nice G

Definite ginger and a little clove on the nose. Clove and cinnamon come through well in the taste. Between that and the booziness it’s definitely a warming beer. Spice flavor tends to dominate though. Ends up like a clove beer w/ some sweetness.

Lots of oak in the nose and flavor. Smooth and a hazy light brown. A little caramel followed by a boozy punch. Booze is a bit overpowering.

Bottle Shop Series: Mango Magnifico G

Love the mix of sweet and heat in this one. Seems to have a little more heat than I remember, but maybe the bottle is a little older. Can’t beat a 4-pack of a good 10% beer for $7 though!

Sweet Repute G

Very subtle, slightly sweet nose. Has a floral sweetness followed by a hint of the maple. Some boozy warmth and a little more sweetness at the end. Nice.

French Toast Bastard G

Not quite as overpoweringly sweet as last time it seems. Cinnamon comes through a little more, but still a big maple presence. Little booze in the finish.

Wake Up World Wide Stout (2022) G

Light coffee nose. Big, rich coffee flavor it masks the usually big, boozy flavor that World Wide Stout has. Very light hints of cinnamon and maple sweetness. Makes the 17% more dangerous.

French Toast Bastard G

Sweet maple nose w/ a hint of cinnamon. Big maple up front that is too sweet, even when the cinnamon adds some spice to balance. A little earthy/bitter finish that doesn't quite fit. Overall breakfast in a glass, but the sweetness is too much.

Ultimate Oktoberfest G

I had no idea this was an imperial when I bought it. Can smell the bourbon. Smooth, some malt, but the bourbon is a lot more prevalent. Definitely a big hit for the barrel aging fans. David C.

Mandarin & Mango Crush G

Light fruity smell. Light and crisp. Lots of fruit flavor. The mandarins come through most in flavor and in the tartness. It’s not tart like a sour ale, but definitely tart enough. Good while the weather is still warm.

Bottle Shop Series Mango Magnifico G

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa (2021) G

Coffee and light cinnamon on the nose. More coffee and lots of cinnamon in the flavor. Smooth, with a hint of chocolate and bourbon in the finish. More sweetness than vanilla balances it all. Cinnamon is a bit too strong

Utopias Barrel - Aged World Wide Stout (2021) G

I assume it’s a 2021 bottle. Unmistakable Utopias nose, hints of fig and vermouth. Has that raisin and roast booziness of WWS with a slightly smoother finish. A little caramel and vermouth and a lot of alcohol in the finish. Nice sipper!

4 Giants IPA (2020) G
