Had my last few Double Trouble tonight, and some fresh Goose Island IPA.

Kind of a big beer festival:

Both were good but Gravitation > Schlafly, ymmv

There's hope for you yet.

2011 FBS is drinking at its best right now. I either love it really fresh, like with in 1 or 2 weeks of bottling, or I like it with about 5 or 6 months on it.

I have a couple with about 4-5 years. Think they are any good?

Maybe. Coffee and chocolate are most likely all gone by now. There is a small window of time between 6-8 months that I think FBS drinks best. That's my taste though, and the past 3 years its been the same story. I've had a year old bottle that was still good, but you could tell it was on the down slope. Coffee stouts are finicky beers.. The only one that I hear that holds up to more than a year of age is Goose Island Bourbon County Coffee.

Firestone Walker Union Jack IPA

Central Waters Peruvian Morning holds up great for a coffee stout. Should get my new ones when I get into town today, had a few places save me some. Will test last years with fresh ones next weekends.

How's this? We just started getting it. Had their rye pale the other day and liked it a lot.

Liking some double trouble right now. Had a homebrewed breakfast stout clone earlier. It's been 5'ish months on that one, flavors are starting to die. Time for a new batch.

mmblz · 01-29-2012, 07:51 PM

Just had one tonight but pretty darn good I thought.
Clean, pretty hoppy without being totally over the top...
Definitely buying more.

2012 Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Barleywine. Holy crap, not sure what these guys use but I'm sure its magic.

2012 Central Waters Peruvian Morning. Another home run by CW. This stuff is amazing fresh and is at par with Goose Island BC coffee stout.

I've got some Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Stout.. Amazing price for a 4 pack.. I have loved the few CW's beers I've had. Illumination blew me away.
