I bet that was glorious. I've been loving that Bells stout and I'd imagine it goes well with that red. (Rhone valley ftw)

I've blended twice on seperate occasions rarer dos and hunaphus. Thought the dos was a lil to hot fresh. When I cracked the bottle it was kinda cold so we were letting it warm in glasses. My impatient bro decided to open his Huna and as the two glasses sat side by side in front of us a light bulb went off!!!!!!' SO CLOSE TO DRINKING A DOUBLE BARREL HUNA!!!!!!!!! had to do it again at a share with my boy who originally cracked his Db HUNA with me. Everyone agreed it damn near a CLONE recipe!!!!!!!

Wake n bake and death by coconut has proved to be a truly delicious combo.

I approve.

Are you watching Oprah?

Looks like it now you say that, doesn't it?

But no, I was not actually watching that... although I'm fairly certain this won't be the last I hear about this haha.

The one with WnB was much better, the coffee really complimented the coconut very nicely. The chocolate in this one kind of drowns out the coconut.

Poor mans prop!!! Ghetto prop!!! Prop on a budget!!

I decided to start with a bottle of Boulevard Coffee Ale that I have held onto for way too long. Upon opening the first thing I notice is that this bottle doesn't have anywhere near the level of carbonation as the other bottles I opened in the past. The flavor is light green pepper with a hint of peppery spice.

I then added some 6yr Saz Rye and vanilla extract to a snifter. I threw the concoction in the freezer for 20 minutes and blended to taste. This turned out pretty good but I think the amount of whiskey and vanilla I added may lead to me being drunk by the time I finish the bottle.

What's that you say... you have a completely flat barleywine you don't know what to do with?

Flatitude (2011 Gratitude) + 6yr Saz Rye + Vanilla Extract + 2014 Bigfoot (to add carbonation)

All blended to taste. It turned out surprisingly good. I would do this again but fortunately this is my last bottle of Flatitude. It also sucks that I opened a bigfoot and blended in whiskey so the abv for the night isn't in my favor.

Honestly, the last bottle of Flatitude I opened tasted fine without the bubbles, but only in small pours

It doesn't have a bad taste but I can't imagine drinking a 750 of this by myself without the additions.

Took my mine to a share with friends and had about 2-3 oz and that was perfect

DBCBCS... did a 1:1 ratio (3 oz to 3 oz) on NYE. Didn't get time to mess with ratios - Dropped the rest of the BCBS in a red cup for mobility...

Would probably try a 2:1 (GI:OB) if I were to play around again.

Yeah man. 2:1 works so much better,doesn't kill the body on the bcbs. But you still get that coconut kick!!!!

Nice - yeah that was the thing for me, 1:1 really killed the viscosity for me (given my personal preference). Though, to be fair, I didn't have a problem crushing the 1:1 mix in a few minutes...

This was seriously frickin good!

Thanks Stubs and emale619!

Hello all. Usually just lurk but decided to make an account.

My favorite by far was 2014 fou with Pulling Nails B2 at a 70/30 ratio. Honestly it was one of the greatest things I've ever tasted.
