I've got a bottle of Firestone 15. Should it be served at room temperature, chilled or cold?

Want to add, use a snifter and not a pint glass.

It's not a lie if you believe it.
Chilled or room temp, although I prefer it room temp.
FW 15 is good stuff!

Interesting. It isn't going to convert me from brown spirits but not bad at all. The sweetness in the aftertaste was unexpected and you can certainly tell there were some bourbon barrels in the mix. Had it at 50 degrees if any one is curious.

Most beers here have a serving temperature recommendation on the label. My eyes have been opened to "warm" beer. And having the correct glass, of course.

Sorry if dumb question but when I looked up F15 I found that its a blend of 8 different beers, is that right? If so that's incredible, I didn't even know that existed!

Straight from the bottle? I mean, yeah for an everyday beer, sure. But drinking this from the bottle? ???
Yes, the FW anniversary ales are blends of their other beers. The bottle comes in a box with a legend that shows the percentage of each beer blended in.sar127 said:
I wouldn't say it's common, but other breweries have done it. I know Mike has/had a bottle of Baller Stout (I forgot which brewery released it) which is a blend of other breweries imperial stouts. Also, Stone Lukcy Bastard is a blend of Arrogant Bastard, oaked Arrogant Bastard, and Double Bastard.

I was kidding about straight from the bottle.

The bottle of Older Viscosity says it is a blend of various batches of regular Viscosity.
