I have been taking my time and savoring this, as it has been warming up the flavors have been getting more pronounced, still a bit light for the style but very good. Wish I had gotten more, put some down for a year or two then see how it goes.6 Year Anniversary, big on the nose and flavor of cherries, but light for a strong Ale, great color.

Oxidized and a little bitter
FW Barrelworks currently has 15 and 19 Parabola on tap, as well as Maple Parabola and 18 Parabajava. I think I'm talking myself into a drive down.
Any favs?View attachment 625531 Belgian flight at Adelberts Austin

I'm tall and big in beer inches.kinda short, aren't ya ??
Personally I think most of their barrel aged strong ales benefit with a few years on them. Parabajava, for example, might be an exception to that rule due to the coffee flavor fading a bit over time. That said, I much prefer drinking them on tap vs bottled. Get there if at all possible as they often have verticals to compare. I think my favorite from them is Sucaba. It's one of my favorite beers period. I've still got a '13 in the fridge being saved for a special occasion.Is the 15 as good as I remember it? Now that I think about it I believe I have one sitting in the back of the fridge along with a 15’ Sucaba. I need to get down there and check out the barrel works.
