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.

Just visited Marietta's new growler store and came home with a 64oz growler of ST 2xIPA and 32oz growler of Lenny Big Eddy Stout. Having a growler store within walking distance of the house might prove useful and a problem all at the same time

Nice, good to see 2012 Bigfoot is hitting now. I've got a 6 pack left from last year I've been sitting on to age. I'll hide some 2012 in the cellar too.

One of my friends scored both a 1989 and 1998 vintages. It's unreal how well this beer can age. I prefered the 98 vintage, 89 fell off a bit but was still good. It's an odd beer between 3-6 years old.. Between those years, people tend to not like it as much.. I guess kinda a "sick" period.

I started aging these in 2008. I wish I would have started sooner.

Went to Wholefoods the other day (one of the few supermarkets in my area that sells alcohol BTW) and picked up a couple of special beers for the Super Bowl.

First:

Collaboration No. 2 White IPA a beer made by both Boulevard Brewing and Deschutes.

Second:

Wachusett Larry an excellent Imperial IPA put out by a local brewery. I really wish I could get this beer in a 6-pack.
