Black & Blue BBLs
Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout blended with bourbon barrel-aged sour stout with blueberries and blackberries In brewing, BBL is the notation for “barrel,” a unit of measurement equal to 31 gallons. This is not to be confused with an oak barrel, which typically holds nearly two BBLs of beer...

Yeah I couldn’t find the birthday or anniversary anywhere. Did flights of the 3 flavored and the normal tonight. Carmella was good but a bit sweet to drink much of. #4 was probably the best coffee stout I’ve had, but I’ll admit that’s not really my thing. The tea one was a bit weird but better than I thought it would be. The original seemed a bit more bourbon flavored than the last few years.

I've only had one of the original (though, if I had somehow managed 3 of the "regular", I'd be lining them up one per day), and I thought it was great.

Man, we just started getting Yuengling in my area and I'd buy that just to try it.
How sweet is it? A lot of the chocolate beers I've had are diabeetus-bombs.

I was VERY skeptical of this. As much as like Yuengling as cheap(er) go-to, I couldn't think of them doing a porter well when I first saw this. But after reading some reviews online, I will definitely need to pick a pack of this up to try.
On another note, the Founder's KBS 'Maple Mackinac Fudge' was EXCEPTIONAL. It was to me a much better version of their CBS. I would highly recommend for anyone topick some up if they can. It is a pretty sweet beer, but well balanced with the other notes/flavors, just want to give a warning (if the name wasn't enough of a give-away).

The espresso one was very good as well but swung the other way with being less sweet.

Picked up a 4 pack of this rheingeist/boulevard collab, "Crust Fall", and it was really good. Got a little too sweet as it warmed up and I wish it had little crust/biscuitiness.

Tonight I'm working on Christmas Pancakes. Nice strong dark stout that isn't too heavy. I wish the maple syrup flavor came through a little more strongly, but the spice balance is spot on.

I'm not the biggest Rhinegeist. Being from Cincy, I drink my fair share of it when back there. I feel like their move is to pack as much hop flavor as possible into their beers.

I've only had a few brought to me by a friend, and they were pretty good. Not amazing but certainly something I'd take as a stand-by or everyday beer... but I've got Founder's All Day or random amazing lagers in my area and.

Reviewing 3 Floyds Zombie Dust and Gumballhead after finding them in a store while on vacation... Nothing special at all. Maybe years ago when you couldn't get many great beers locally.. But these, they're fine, but nothing that I can't go buy at the store all day long otherwise.
