Nick Wierda is drinking a Backwoods Bastard (2015) by Founders Brewing Co.
Smooth and sweet. Loads of caramel and toffee, some dark fruit, vanilla, and even chocolate. Dry finish. Malt married with oak and bourbon.

Nick Wierda is drinking a Triangular Nature (Blend #3) by Suarez Family Brewery at Van Vorst Park
Very Arthur-like. Tart green apple and lemon up front, rounds out and finishes with a touch of honey sweetness. Pretty much perfect.
Nick Wierda is drinking a Bourbon Barrel Aged Malus by Kane Brewing Company at Kane Brewing Company
Unexpectedly awesome. Figgy pudding on the nose, mulled wine and cider on the palate. Chocolate finish. Need a roaring fire to sip this by

Nick Wierda is drinking an Imperial Stout (2014) by Founders Brewing Co.
Aged beautifully. Smooth dark chocolate, burnt sugar, black coffee, bit of blackberry in there as well. Everything you want from a stout.

Tons of caramel and toffee, raisins, dates, the whole nine. Bourbon is incredibly well-integrated. Touch of jammy red wine too. Great stuff
