From left to right:
DFH Noble Rot (one for me and one for Tony

)
Cigar City/Bruey Collaboration - Dos Costas Oeste - Lemon wood aged (2)
Cigar City/Bruey Collaboration - Dos Costas Oeste - Grapefruit wood aged
Cigar City/Bruey Collaboration - Dos Costas Oeste - Cedar wood aged
Pugsley (cat not beer)

We'll be tasting these on Monday night as part of a smaller tasting group. I'm going to bring a bottle of Sauternes to try along side the DFH Noble Rot to see how it compares to the "classic" Botrytis/Noble Rot wine (not saying the beer should taste like wine, but just to see how they did getting the classic noble rot flavors into the beer).

The CCB/Bruery beers should be interesting, they are 9% ABV "saisons" aged on spirals of the described wood. We got to try the cedar aged one a few months ago at a tasting, to say it was intensely flavored would be putting it mildly, we'll see how its shaped up.
