Surly Darkness
Stone Xocoveza
May get a bomber of something from 515

Dublin Bay has this on tap right now. Delicious!

I've got a bottle of SR-71 from Toppling Goliath that I'll be ringing in the new year with. Can't wait!

Will be breaking open the growler of Exike GiGi that I got for Christmas. Between NYE on Saturday and Packers/Lions on Sunday it should be a good weekend

My plain 2015 Bourbon County was excellent. Also had a 2014 last weekend that was great.

I've had 3 month old Sosus taste good if it's been cold the whole time.

Awesome, if I had to guess, I'd day its about there in age (if I remember right, you could probably tell me when the last distribution was).

It's been bottled in the last 2 months I wanna say. I still have one bottle from the last bottling. I drank one last week that was decent. Sosus has been a little up and down from batch to batch and with different ages this year. Some are killer, some batches the first bottle seems disappointing but a week later the next bottle is awesome.

If it's the last run it should be in good shape yet.

OH HOW I LOVE HYVEE!!!

Decided to go into my favorite hy-vee over lunch to get a few more bottles and one of the employees walks over to me with 2 bombers and says "Would you like the last two of these we have?".........KING SUE!!!!

Boone Valley Brewery released their 2016 Ol Griz barleywine a couple of weeks ago. Definitely going to open a bottle Saturday night. The Tallgrass Vanilla Bean Buffalo Sweat sounds great, also.

Costco has cases of Psuedo Sue for $44, which is a lot cheaper than any local stores. Of course it's the Florida stuff but still a good deal.

Keg Stand had $5 growler fills tonight on everything. I picked up some 2015 Pentagram. Awesome way to get customers.

Made a run to Alluvial earlier and picked up a growler of Pluvial Porter with coconut to add to the mix. Very good!
