Saturday’s beer: Blackfoot River Brewing’s Whiskey Barrel Aged Imperial Stout (2014) 🍺
one of the longest long-shots I brought home from Mike’s basement stash, it’s maybe a little over sweet on the back end but still pretty damn good after 9 (!) years

Saturday’s beer: Martin House Brewing’s Put That Cookie Down

an “Imperial Sugar Cookie Ale with Lactose and Vanilla” – I like a sweet beer, but, wow, maybe not quite this sweet 🍺

[TMI update: I wound up with some kind of stomach bug overnight, and this didn’t taste any better on the way back up. I suppose nothing would, ha ha, but I’m afraid this rating is going down to 1 star, and I’ll be giving away the last two cans of this stuff 🤢]
