Been stocking up on Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Barelywine and Peruvian Morning.

Dave, do you know if they shipped some cases of the CW BBB down to Chicagoland?

I can't believe it but my local beer store still has a few cases of CW BBS. I may have to pick up one more before they're gone.

If your store got in BBS there is a chance you might get BBB. I would talk to the owner or manager and see what they know. Also find out the day(s) they get in CW.

Thanks Dave, good advice.

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

Came upon a six pack of Ale Asylum Ballistic (IPA)

and a six pack of Ale Asylum Satisfaction-Jacksin (DIPA)

Heard good things about Ale Asylum. Really looking forward to diving into these two taste treats.

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.

Picked this up last night:

2012 Bigfoot is here!!!

02-02-2012, 09:17 PM

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.

Salvelinus · 02-03-2012, 03:07 PM

The poorly exposed white ones are Lawsons Double Sunshine. 4 Hopslams and 4 Double Troubles didn't make the photo.

Bill86 · 02-03-2012, 03:10 PM

Nice haul! The FFF beers are great.

Salvelinus · 02-03-2012, 03:18 PM

Got a wee heavy in bottles right now, got the RTB and Old Chub for comparison.

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.

http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/423/68746

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.
