World Wide Stout (2007)

This is drinking pretty great for a 17 year old brew. There are still tiny bubbles of carbonation. The fruit feels pushed back at this point and that salty umani is coming through and it tingles the tounge. It's past it's prime, but enjoyable

Mosaic Promise

Can't find this locally, but found it it Spain. It's not as bright as I recall and is leaning meaty midrange. Brewed by Mahou

Bottle Shop Series: Mango Magnifico

This is an interesting dichotomy of sweet mango up top and the pepper on the bottom. Feels like it Integrated somewhat with time, but 8ta still missing a bridge in the middle. Still, belies it's abv these were fun experiments

Immort Ale

Jan 16 bottle. This has largely aged out. The oak is still present and there are remnants of that maple. I miss these DFH brews

Higher Math

Slightly chalky but those sour cherry notes are still very present atop a chocolate backdrop. Alcohol heat, minimal bubbles,but drinking great. We just don't see these kind of beers from DFH any more

That's a hit of ginger. It's a lovely cookie profile and super different.

Crimson Cru

This has that rodenbach tang and sweetness, but there's a strong metallic note on the backend that makes this less enjoyable

Sweet Repute

Mild nose. Mild coconut. Coconut into sip. Maple up top. I don't hate it. Goes down super easy for the abv. Not super Bittered. Different but good

Más Agave Grapefruit (2021)

Definitely not as nice as the original. Not as sweet as the prickly pear, but you lose some of that tart balance. Id drink it if it was around.

Más Agave Prickly Pear

This reminds me of a watermelon jolly rancher. It's just too Sweet without the balance. Works better with some lime juice thrown in. Here's to the weekend!

Dogfish yeast vibes. Mildly tart. It's pleasant but could be great.

Beer Thousand

Drinking surprisingly well. Undercarbed at this point but there's a rich malty sweetness that has developed. Lots of sediment. Decant the first 8 oz. Most of the oxidation taste is in that leftover sludge.

Beer To Drink Music To

Hanging in there. Lost some of the upper esters but it give way to some gingery notes. Great with food not as much on its own 4

Más Agave Premium Hard Seltzer Lime

Look it not mas Agave. It does evoke mas Agave, and is probably one the best hard seltzers I've tried, but I feel like they took it just slightly too far as it feels a little too watered down. And yet, would drink again

Más Agave Premium Hard Seltzer Grapefruit

This one has a little more flavor. It's too sweet in the beer, but it works better here to round it out.

Más Agave (2019)

Starting to lose some of the bright lime overtones. The base of the beer is still quite nice. I guess I'm going to have to hope they keep making this. It's not 'better' after a year sitting
