A random beer thought/question here

Anyone have a Founders Bolt Cutter from about 4-5 years ago? Or even better have you opened one recently?

Yes. Terrible

That beer ages spectacularly. Every time it comes out, it comes across as some disappointing sugar bomb. 3-4 years out... beautiful. 9-10 years out... (I know, ain't nobody got time for that).... peak raspberries.

I had an '07 in '15. Can confirm it was delicious.

I wish this had come to Texas back in the day. DFH was seriously weird with Texas back then and would send like every 3rd bottle release they made. Remember picking up Pangaea in Florida cause it never made it here.

Remember being so hyped the first time 120 made it.

Being so hyped to meet Sam C back in the day.

Meeemories. Can't tell you the last DFH I drank, lol.

Festina Peche

I drank one at ~2.5 years and it was pretty good. I can't imagine it's still good.

Thanks for the feedback. Responses that I was expecting.

Good introductory berliner, but now all I drink is Red Bud, Live Oak Berlinerweiss and Einhorn from local breweries.

LO's Berliner in particular makes Festina Peche look like ******* clown shoes.

Oh no. Now any IPA above 8% is going to be referred to as a NE IPA

They dry hopped the last one a lot before bottling. Didn't taste like old hops at all. *shrug* It's been one of their best recent Backstage attempts.

ZFG. Probably my favorite backstage series beer they did.

Curmudgeon's Better Half is still #1 for me, but this is close.

I thought CBS was good, coffee brown was meh, and then it went completely downhill from there, though I think I stopped trying them after Bolt Cutter (I cannot remember the release order, but tried about 5 of them)

 

[lazerviking]

coffee brown tasted like terrible hazelnut gas station coffee

FTFM

 

[nanobrew1]

FTFM

Agreed

 

[abawol01]

Aren't we all forgetting Sweet Repute? That **** was delicious.

So much better than the BA Curmudgeon nonsense they put on tap these days.

You forgot to put the limited number of bottles they released of Barrel Aged Cancer Cells before Lizard of Koz.

Well before Lizard of Koz.

That might be in that "all of the middle of the road ****." I honestly don't recall having any of it, though the one off they did for some furniture store or something was okay. Also, Deca predates the backstage stuff... hell, I think it predates the Nemesis program (lol Resident Evil), but I would park it right behind FMB.
