Any variation of this series would be great for Virtual Pub a week from Saturday.
Gonna need higher ABV to get through this game/season.

I don't think I've seen them mentioned, but Ommegang has a few. Found them on the TotalWine website, but they appear to be limited release and none are in stock near me.
Wine Barrel Three Philosophers - Aged in French oak, Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux red blend varietals
Dubbel Merlau - Abbey-style Dubbel co-fermented with Merlot grape juice, aged in red wine barrels
Chardonnale - Golden ale co-fermented with Chardonnay grape juice and matured on oak chips (so oaky but not barrel-aged)
Saison Rosé - A delicate mélange of saisons, one aged on oak, the other brewed with hibiscus flowers and co-fermented with Chardonnay grape juice (again not technically wine-barrel aged)

Apparently this wasn't quite high enough ABV to finish our comeback last PM:

Recently, I have mostly been reducing current inventory of beer I already reviewed. I’m still drinking, just not much new stuff.
"Amazing what a minute can do."
Looking like a beer exchange on Sunday in a well-lighted parking lot of an open business during daytime hours. No bowling alleys in the vicinity, best I can tell.
