A fun find. A little Mikkeller pop up in the Tanuki Koji shopping street in Sapporo. Had to stop for one! It's a nice brown. Caramel malts. Boston brown bread. Pecan skin. Cheers to a day off recovery after a very late night with a beer legend!

Trippelbock Frederiksdal Cherries Shileny
A big boy beer. Deep woody Bock notes. Dark brown bread. Caraway seed. Mulch. Chocolate covered cherries. A very interesting balance of the full bodied Bock flavors juxtaposed with cherry tartness. Super fun. And a fully hot and heavy booze bomb too.

Kriek Mariage Parfait (2013) Shileny
Another excellent beer. Black cherry, raisin, prune. But with a nice oak barrel notes. Pairs well with Top 5 Lists.

Big ol malty boozy beer. But last one of the night. Last one in the States before heading back to Thailand (via Mexico!). Caramel malts, brown bread, bark wheat Chex. It's boozy but balanced. Love Founders. Cheers to all the Arizona beer tastings!

When the whole house goes to bed, you can stay up with wifey and get out the big boy beers. So good. It is a perfect breakfast beer. I want to drink this with blueberry pancakes. Rich and decadent, yet so smooth and drinkable. I'm glad we didn't share.

Passion Fruit PBJ Time Shileny
A pain in the butt to open. Impenetrable wax. I wanted to love this one, and it fell a bit short. Harsh boozy aroma. I enjoy the bright passion fruit and honey on the front end. The peanuts are where it goes off the tracks. Unpleasant peanut oil.

The annual Saturday-morning-after-the-last-day-of-school-beer! And as always, it's a tremendous one. Tart apricot and peach, a bit of dried mango. Has some delicious woody funk. Lightl biscuit yeast. Excellent toast to 4 years in Korea! On to Bangkok!

A little hoppy and bitter for me. But I enjoy the creamy/juicy tropical flavors too. Star fruit and pineapple. And overwhelming grapefruit. Cheers to a weekend of beers!

Another boozy bomb. This is so bourbon forward. It's woody and dry. Dry coffee crystals. But gosh, it's hard to get much that besides that bourbon!

That is a tremendous beer. Holy cow. Bright passion fruit puree. Other tropical fruits mingling in too like star fruit and pineapple. Pleasant saltiness. Hard to believe it is 8%. It's so crushable.

A little bit thin. But nice and tropical. Lightly hoppy, a bit dry. Overall pleasant and tasty. Good to relax with!

You taste all 15% of this booze bomb. But so much more to it. It's deep flavors of coffee and toffee. It's for spice of licorice or anise. It's creamy vanilla and chocolate mousse. Never had an imperial with this level of alcohol this sweet. Yes!

Ugggghhhh. It's just so great. Blueberry compote, sourdough bread, purple grapes, light granola. Tart and woodsy. Yum.

SpontanCherry Frederiksdal Shileny
Tremendous. Super fat ripe cherries just dripping down your chin. That's what this brings. Ends with a light funky barrel dryness. I really dig it

I mean, what can you say? It's a perfect kriek. It's such a great fresh tart red cherry juice. It's jammy, but not overly sweet. Balanced by barrel and light funk. A special beer, for a special day, with a special person.

Sometimes you accidentally order an NA beer. Juicy and light. Green apple jolly rancher, green grape gummies. Good drink while waiting for delicious burgers at Yang Bros!

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2018) Shileny
Comparing to the 2017, I think it was less boozy, a bit creamier chocolate. I think I liked the 2017 just a tiny bit more. Still great

I can always drink CBS's! Dark chocolate ganache, boozy Godiva, french silk pie, mocha chocolate chip ice cream. Great. Last night in Tucson!

Mikkeller Oude Geuze (Old Calvados Casks Blend) Shileny
Oude Geuze #2! Lemony, woody, and ends with yellow grapefruit. Not as good as the Timmerman's one, but pretty tasty!

What a phenomenal brew. Brightly tart cherry. Raspberries right from the bush, some hibiscus. Lightly yeasty, like a scone. As little bit of barrel funk. Great way to celebrate a night of fundraising for CEF!

Like eating a whole raspberry, greens and all. A lightly salty yogurt. A GREAT summer beer. Highly crushable.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) Shileny
Had to get, after Adam was bragging about drinking it the other day! Dark chocolate. Creamy espresso ice cream/frappacino. And a heavy dose of bourbon barrel that makes the whole thing a booooooooozy delight.

Bean Geeks - Session Porter Shileny
Sweet. Chocolate covered cherries. But definitely bitter roasted coffee beans too. A nice end to the night of booking lodging for the Korean road trip!

A solid beer on a cold January night. A very sweet stout. Has a flavor of a chocolate cream blueberry cordial candy. A bit thin, and not that creamy mouthfeel I expect in pastry stouts, but still good. And it was free!

First off, 9.7%?? Yowza. This beer was never meant for my palette. I'm sure if you like agave and grapefruit it's for your. I unfortunately dislike both. It tastes like a spiked grapefruit radler. Blegh. I need a new beer.
