Has anyone tried Oskar Blues Death by King Cake?
Reads like it would be delicious.
Founders Mas Agave Lime (Tequila Barrel Aged)
Also a Brewer’s Kettle find. Just ... wow. My new favorite “lime” beer (sorry, BATT and your altered 2020 recipe). The color of a nice bourbon. Loads of lime on the nose. Sooooo smooth on the palate, but then the citrus and agave hit. The finish lingers forever. Cat 4 in my book. Regretting only getting one 12-ouncer (although I grabbed one of the grapefruit version as well). Amazing beer!
"Amazing what a minute can do."
Let me start by saying - I don't drink dark beers. Never have. Don't drink coffee either. Not much for the bitter flavors.
But...
Was feeling adventurous this evening and cracked open the Hornswoggler w/Double Stuff Oreos and Cinnamon from The Veil Brewing. Since it's been many years since I've had a dark beer, thought I'd see if my tastes had changed.
Pours thick and dark brown, almost black. Very little head that disappears quickly.
Burnt coffee to the nose.
Lots of bittersweet chocolate, more of the coffee, maybe a hint of the oreos and cinnamon. Not sure about the chocolate milk on the label. Could use a touch more carbonation, date says May 13 so a couple months out. ?
Could just be my untrained palate but just seems to me to remind me of how old coffee used to taste.
Nope, I'm still not a dark beer guy. T'was a valiant effort though.
"That young man has an extra step on his ladder the rest of us just don't have."
I was even more tempted by this one, along with the Mas Agave grapefruit, but alas, neither said "Irish" on the labels.
I'm still making another visit to Total Wine tomorrow for one more for Virtual Pub and *might* grab a 4 pack of one (? both ) of these.
The Mas Agave tequila barrel imperial lime gose was released in 2019, too, and I'm pretty sure I had a couple of these but my archived post on crazietalk about this could not be located. I'll look here a bit later tonight.

Hoping Bottle Rev still FrIPA day today for their growler pricing.

What time does the pub open tomorrow? I'm going to be in and out attending some socially distanced birthday parties, but I have a few Irish stouts on deck to contribute to the shenanigans.
