Buschy treat on the way home from the farm, now these.
Sick of giant rock. F my back.

6 Year Anniversary, big on the nose and flavor of cherries, but light for a strong Ale, great color. View attachment 625564View attachment 625565
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.
 
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.

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.
 
This was a Sorachi Ace Saison that some how acquired some wild yeast.

So, I doubled down and inoculated it with an aliquot of wild yeast I cultured from the dregs of a wild Trillium.

Just about 3 weeks post secondary infection and the Sorachi Ace hops are just starting to fade and the funk is just setting in.

Thanks for the taster @TBC

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.
