Yesterday at Milos' Craft Beer Emporium:
Bellwoods Roman Candle IPA (draught)
Flying Monkeys Nude Saison Sour (draught) - would love to see this join their regular lineup; very sessionable saison with the perfect amount of tartness
F&M Stone Hammer Oatmeal Coffee Stout (draught)

Then at home:
2011 Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barleywine Style Ale - exactly two years old and it's so much richer and more complex than the fresh ones I've had; layer upon layer of cherry, toast, plum, toffee, and piney-citric hops. This beer never disappoints.

How do you feel about vans and candy?

After an RPA, an almost two year old Peche.

Yum! Still has nice coffee aromas and flavours but the malts are smooth as glass. I think someone else has said this on the board, but this would have been a beautiful stout even without the coffee.

May be my favourite age of Peche, other than super fresh.

Haven't had the newer Spanish-brewed batch but the original Even More Jesus is easily in my top 5 for Impy Stouts. Loved that one. I normally hate sweet beers but that one did something for me. Deserves more attention IMO.

Currently drinking a Roman Candle (thanks Boney!). Something seems a bit off about this batch... Not quite the beer I remember.

I also haven't had the "Aun Mas...", but I agree on the standard Even More Jesus. I find the mouthfeel on some of the heavier Evil Twin beers to be fantastic- really full and smooth. Lil' B is another example.
I was at his new bar in Brooklyn, Torst, last week, and had the chance to try a version of Even More Jesus aged in port barrels. Not sure if I prefer it to the original, but it was a very nice variation.

Mikkeller Green Gold
GLB 25th Anny BIPA

Still a nice hop flavour in the BIPA.

They do have Peche without the coffee - it's Grande Noirceur. I picked some up in Quebec last December. I prefer it to Peche personally.

Beyond The Pale Hop On Your Face
Beyond The Pale Rye Guy

Both 32oz growlers while homebrewing this afternoon. Anyone think Rye Guy tastes a little different recently, or is it just me? Bit more of a wheat flavour going on it seems.

Actually right at this moment, Samuel Adams Latitude 48.

Nickel Brook Malevolent Imperial Black IPA, boozy, but I like the hop flavour in this one. Hoppy, with a whisper of dank. Although the price leaves something to be desired. I guess many brewers here are seeing dollar signs in their eyes with 650 and 750 formats, it's kind of like the wild west pricing-wise.

Yesterday, against my better judgment I purchased and drank a bottle of the 8 Wired IPA. I can see the potential in this one, but unfortunately it tasted like 4 month old IPA.
