Good eye sir, indeed it is. I had it sitting in the timeout corner because it had a good amount of diacetyl. I think between six of us we barely drank half the bottle.

Just my observation - It's funny that chardonnay makers deliberately promote the production of diacetyl for the feel and flavor it imparts, yet when a beer ages in a chardonnay barrel, the carryover diacetyl is a negative. I quite like the nebco beer as well as the Jack's Abby Sour Time lager that is also chardonnay barrel aged. I'm not as sensitive to diacetyl as a lot of folks (more of a mouthfeel thing for me), so the subtle buttery note in the nebco beer didn't bother me - blends well with the mustiness that brett can give off. I quite like it actually. Sent my last bottle off in a trade, and sort of regretting it.

A MarkIntihar, in his native habitat, moderating and contemplating. Hands off the pretzels.

It just doesn't seem fair to do this without about 6 HF growlers...

I feel like I've seen so many photos of MarkIntihar but he's never the one posting them...
Feels weird, man.

I opened my HOTD stash last night.

Adftw, CAftw, Matt 13, Matt 10, FFTW 2013, FFTW 2008, Otto, Bfftw 2013, Bfftw 2011, collage

Aftw and Matt 10 were easy favorites. Bourbon Fred - both years - were surprisingly good. 2008 FFTW transformed into pineapple juice.

From memory I prefer it fresh but still great. No coffee flavor left it was kbs with a slight sweet aftertaste.

How was the Triumvirate? I've been curious about it but I haven't really been pleased with anything I've had from Rivertown.

It was really good, one of the surprise favorites of the night. I'm going to go buy one or two for myself tomorrow.

2011, 12, 13 Darkness tasting from Friday night.

 

[Lurkaholic]

Opened a couple of nice ones this week. And if you're sober enough to remember to take photos, you're doing it wrong

 

[kmello69]

Our little tasting group got together this weekend to enjoy these. I provided all the beer for the tasting, because I'm trying to reduce my cellar (and fighting a losing battle)
