Goose Island Bourbon County Stout
"I really wanted to do something special for our 1000th batch at the original brewpub. Goose Island could have thrown a party. But we did something better. We brewed a beer. A really big batch of stout-so big the malt was coming out of the top of the mash tun. After fermentation we brought in some bourbon barrels to age the stout. One hundred and fifty days later, Bourbon County Stout was born-A liquid as dark and dense as a black hole with a thick foam the color of bourbon barrels. The nose is a mix of charred oak, vanilla,carmel and smoke. One sip has more flavor than your average case of beer. It overpowers anything in the room. People have even said that it’s a great cigar beer, but I haven’t yet tried a cigar that would stand up to it."

Illuminated Brew Works Fruit Slave IPA
“You know there wasn't fruit in the gum you chewed as a kid, right? It was an illusion, a trick played on your impressionable mind by bad-intentioned scientists bankrolled by Fat Cat, macro-gum corporations exploiting your enthusiasm for big, juicy flavors. Well, there’s no damn fruit in this beer either. Just an incredibly wasteful amount of Motueka, Citra & Mandarina Bavaria hops to make you believe it's full of tropical delights. Drinking this, you’ll be so lost in juicy rapture, with your pleasure centers popping at the seams, that we’ll have you forever in our lovable grip. Another member for our dubious cult, a Fruit Slave forever powerless to your juicy needs.”

Hubbard’s Cave Fresh IIPA v5
“An 8.5% ABV Double IPA hopped with Amarillo, Citra & Mosaic. Pours hazy orange with dense, creamy, off-white head. Aroma is juicy and floral, citrus dominates. Taste is bitter with some light sweetness. Medium bodied, slick with a crisp finish.”

Epic Brewing Big Bad Baptist Imperial Stout
“It’s big, it’s bad, bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout, with coffee and cocoa nibs. Each season’s release uses a different dark roasted coffee. Smells of scotch and a little brown sugar. Warming, boozy taste with dark fruits. Super rich and complex.”

Unibroue La Fin du Monde (4-pack)
“The end of the world. The excellence of triple fermentation through a blend of special yeasts gives this malt beverage an exquisitely robust flavor of exceptional refinement.”
