Yes it was! Good malt/ hop balance. Thanks Chip! (Walking down to my bar for the Sisyphus next...)

Glad you liked the Furious! I wish I could just rig up an IV of that stuff.

Had 2011 Firestone Walker Abacus aka sucaba earlier tonight as well. If Goose Island King Henry had a light version, this would be it. Still very good barrel aged barleywine, but not as much barrel notes and complexity that the King has. I keep forgeting that King was aged in Pappy 23 barrels, so that's the reason for it being better.

I love them all. Barrel Aged Boris is very good, my favorite from the line. I'd put Doris in front of Boris. Boris is very very good though. Kinda pricey though, but I can't think of a Barrel aged Imperial stout that I can get almost year round as good...

Picked up Doris the Destroy and Boris the Crusher tonight. They also Outta Kilter Wee-Heavy Scotch Red Ale and Mean Manalishi Double I.P.A. that I didn't pick up.

I've stayed away from their other beers.. No reason, just haven't really wanted to buy anything besides their stouts.

Kinda what I've heard. I was surprised to see 3F Mehmoth Barleywine out. For some reason I thought it was later in the year.

Behemoth is their January special release. I agree, it's a great barleywine.

I really enjoyed it. You get the cocoa at first and get a little of the spices but as it warms up you get a little heat.

Opened my last Old Raspy XII Anny tonight. For those that have had KBS, this is just like it.. except on steroids:r:r Amazing beer, best beer I've had in a long time.... Seek it out if you can find it. It's from 2009 though.

Just got back from an ice fishing trip to Chautauqua lake. It happens to be the home of Southern Tier brewing. Even better yet one of the brewers lives in the cottage next to ours. This led to a sweet VIP tour and alot of beer drinking. Drank quite a few 2x IPAs, 2x Stout, Gemini, Inequity, Chokolat Stout, Un Earthly, as well as Oak Aged Pumking which is not bottled and a experimental belgin ale. Fantastic time but man i woke up in a world of hurt lol

I can totally understand why you wouldn't say "enjoying". "Tolerating" might even be a stretch! ;) :lr

As a gift, I had some Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Barleywine; excellent. The hunt continues. Went to 3 Floyds and had a Cimmerian Sabertooth Berserker. A DIPA with New Zealand hops, really good. Hope they decide to bottle this one.

There are a lot of beers they just don't bottle. It's always a treat to go to the brew pub at 3F for fun beers. One of my favorite was a bourbon barrel Moloko.

The central waters bourbon barrel barleywine is great, it also ages well. The 2011 are really tasty, just wish I had put more away.
