Curious if anyone noticed mold around the caps on any cigars in their boxes?  I snagged a box of buena vista le 08 sublimes along with my order of unclean rodents and other wizardry from field supply.  There appeared to be small amounts of mold that was easily wiped away around the caps of these...

They say you shouldn't go grocery shopping when you are hungry... well you shouldn't go cigar shopping after not having a cigar for over 3 weeks.  Got boxes of Liga UF13, Dirty Rats, and Feral Pigs, Illusione ECCJ 20th and Anunnaki, and some how stumbled upon a box of Tatuaje TAA 2014s.  I'm...

I can't seem to get enough of A Midwinter Nights Dram.  Port finished High West Rendezvous Rye.  Tasty stuff.

I haven't made the trip to get Pliny the Younger on tap. but I have had a pour out of a growler years back before they came down hard on growlering it.  I've had quite a few of the Upland Sour offerings, but only Jesterking's Omniscience & Proselytism and Batch 2 of Atrial Rubicite.  Batch 1 is...

Bells Bourbon Barrel Batch 9000 Bourbon County Coffee Bourbon County Rare Heady Topper or Arctic Dekoorc Eert (citra single hopped crooked tree from Dark Horse) (my 2 favorite IPAs hard to pick between the 2) Kuhnhenn Raspberry Eisbock... 2007 release is just insane right now.

Black and Tan?  bah, go with a Heaven and Hell... DFH WWS over DFH 120 Minute.    Since they dialed in the recipe for 120min at 18% consistantly... kegs surprisingly haven't been too difficult to get.

Boltcutter does seem to be getting better.  I was pretty underwhelmed when I first had it upon release.  It also starts opening up after it warms up a bit.  In a pint glass though? :p   Hit up Kuhnhenn's Summer Solstice over the weekends.  Smoked a cigar with Brett Kuhnhenn and drank some TRIPA.

little late to this one   KRE and KBE were $30 each for 12.7oz bottles   I spent $90 on a Black Damnation V   BA9k were 26.50 at the Bell's General Store.  (Ended up with 12 of them :D )  Bolt cutter was from release... now just sitting in the cellar hoping they get better.    

Dan's Pink Skirt Heady Topper

Hopslam landed... so today was Fresh Hopslam and Fresh Heady Topper side by side. I love em both, but man Heady Topper is good.

Hit up Founders, Vivant and Bells this weekend. Cracked a Bolt Cutter. There's a hell of a lot going on in this beer. It is quite something, but I think it still needs a bit of time. It really does hide the 15%. Nitro-Breadfast Stout was good, but I still prefer it on co2. Backwoods is as...

Bell's Barrel-aged Batch 9000 Bell's Barrel-aged Cherry Stout Dark Horse Death Star Lover BA Batch 9000 is glorious.
