Oude Geuze Boon à l'Ancienne - VAT 92 Mono Blend Holloway

Quite unique. Lively, semi dry then dry. Champagne-y, crisp, lovely complementary expression of oak. Maybe a bit peppery? Quite lovely

Oude Geuze Boon à l'Ancienne - VAT 108 Mono Blend Holloway

They estimated January of 08 was when she was born. No mean bones. So loving she could hardly sleep because I might leave the room. I wish I had loved her as well as she loved me. I didn't deserve her. She loved belhaven, but tonight her birth #s will do.

Syrax Holloway

Malty, very hop powdery. I don't know how to enjoy l this by itself but it seems to accentuate some other things.

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa (2021) Holloway

So much cinnamon and cocoa, coffee, it's just all on the label. Big boisterous boozy vanilla. Dry-ish and night-cappy. Lovely

Nemesis (2021) Holloway

I'd buy all of this candle-ized. Amazing, absolutely perfect nose; sweet, and forest-y. Early sips are complex. Sweet, molasses, and evergreen. An hour in and this is mellowing slightly and caramel and dark fruit notes are peeking in. Solid

Velvet Rush (2021) Holloway

Whoa... Lots of big flavors swirling around that seem uncombined. Imma let this warm up a bit. It's not bad, but there is a very slight metallic taste, & seems disjointed. This is much better as it gets to a more appropriate temp. Smoother & cohesive.

Grolsch Premium Lager Holloway

Malt sweetness forward, pretty bitter on the back end. Crushable and ready for a food with some fight in it. Would probably cut a fatty food well. A touch nutty? Pretty nice.

Blue Hen Holloway

Crisp and bright and smooth. I don't think this has lemon, but it may have taken it on from the pasta and that flavor is being enhanced and lingering. Either way it is pairing nicely with pasta of that persuasion.

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa (2021) Holloway

Concentrated coffee grounds with some super 110% dark chocolate in there too. A big deal of flavor early, cinnamon is kind of an afterthought. Wow a bite of apple pie makes this a 5. Lovely.

Punkin Ale 2021 Holloway

Actual pumpkin showing up... And maybe some Belgian something?? This salted caramel pizookie may be showing me something I haven't seen‽‽ Crisp, sweet, and pumpkin spicy!

Dirty Bastard Holloway

Luxuriously smooth, boozy and earthy. A little biscuity bite, and let's call it a beautiful day

Campfire Amplifier Holloway

Smoky smelling or am I just 13" from a fire in a chilly night? Thinner than tonight's huge stouts, but pales I'm comparison

Oktoberfest Holloway

A huge hefe thing happening here. Kind of clove-y and wheaty. Kind of a candied malt thing.
