I managed to snag a bottle of the 5th Dementia from a buddy at DLD. Need to find out when to crack that growler of Russian River Pliny the Younger I have too.

actually, i kinda like the jah-va because it doesn't whack you over the head like, say, the mikkeler. that said, i enjoy both.

John By Imperial Stout - smells like a chocolate liqueur, tastes like an espresso dessert coffee infused with hops. Truly a brunch beer to geek out over.

A growler of Hopping Mad from Granite. Damn good stuff.
Followed that up with a BrewDog Paradox Grain Batch 007. Extremely good but it's bringing me perilously close to the floor, that one is.
