Nick: Glad to see this. I thought you way have quit drinking after a couple weeks!
The_3_Staples is drinking a Frucht: Boysenberry (2017) by Bruery Terreux®
Smooth with a light boysenberry flavor that isn't overpowered by tartness. It's not a rich flavor, but very pleasant. Well done TheBruery!

The_3_Staples is drinking a #Fakejuice by Maumee Bay Brewing Company
Juicy! A substantial bit more earthy hop base under the fruit flavor. Not the most epic, but a nice Ohio-made entrant in the NEIPA wars.

The_3_Staples is drinking a Coors Light by Coors Brewing Company at Spice Shack
It's devolved into just reading questions off of the kids' cards and still getting too many (read:all) wrong. But we're still having fun!

The_3_Staples is drinking a Wooden Hell (2017) by Flossmoor Station Restaurant and Brewery at Spice Shack
Thank goodness this is great because we're doing horribly at 80's Trivial Pursuit. HORRIBLE!!! Don't know what's worse, questions or answers

The_3_Staples is drinking an Interrobang by Harpoon Brewery at Spice Shack
Great nose! Espresso comes through more on the nose than palate, but still present. 18% is not obvious, though mine sat before 1st sip.

The_3_Staples is drinking a Double Berry Cherry J.R.E.A.M. by Burley Oak Brewing Company at Spice Shack
Very tart cherry almost overpowers the lactose. Still fairly creamy, lots of cherry with the lactose aftertaste. Very good, but not the best

The_3_Staples is drinking a Barrel-Aged Ten FIDY Imperial Stout Aged in Bourbon Barrels (2016) by Oskar Blues Brewery at Spice Shack
9-21-16. This aged really nicely! Beautiful Ten Fidy base with a smooth, maybe ever so slightly faded, bourbon overtones. Thanks Denny S.!

The_3_Staples: Felt like it! I had some pertinent issues with which to deal last weekend & didn't have a drop. (I'll make up for it eventually.)
The_3_Staples is drinking a Strawberry Daiquiri J.R.E.A.M. by Burley Oak Brewing Company at The Backroom at Teke's Tavern
As this has warmed, the nose blossomed & flavors came out more. Strawberry even seems to overtake the lactose. Yet another great J.R.E.A.M.

The_3_Staples: Lactose finally emerging as equal to the strawberry flavor. Love this series of beers!
The_3_Staples is drinking a Homegrown by Burley Oak Brewing Company
Definitely a session. (Right? Otherwise, why would they call it as such?) Not a memorable beer. It's lightly hopped. Thanks Tom S.!

The_3_Staples is drinking a Stone Enjoy After 07.04.16 Brett IPA by Stone Brewing at Teke's Tavern
It's just a lightly hopped sour now. Don't recall much of the 1st time I had it, other than disappointment. Might be better. Thanks Tom S.!

The_3_Staples is drinking a Drew Curtis / Wil Wheaton / Greg Koch Stone Farking Wheaton w00tstout (2017) by Stone Brewing at The Backroom at Teke's Tavern
Needs to be warm. Even a slight chill won't let flavors out. A little roast chocolately w/ a nuttiness as chocolate fades. Thanks Tom S.!

The_3_Staples is drinking an Off The Wheaten Path by Burley Oak Brewing Company at The Backroom at Teke's Tavern
Smells great! Initial palate recognition is onion, hint of dank, but followed by a pineapple/tropical finish, blended with the onion.

The_3_Staples is drinking a 11th Anniversary Russian Imperial Stout (w/ Toasted Coconut ) by Rahr & Sons Brewing Company at Teke's Tavern
This is a good RIS! Motor oil pour that is really rich; I won't call it the quintessential RIS, but it's what you imagine an RIS should be.

The_3_Staples is drinking a Dialed In (w/ Pinot Gris Juice) by Trillium Brewing Company
Don't remember the first tasting, but it's good. That said, with my previous rating, I'm thinking it's fallen off. Thanks Tom S. & Rob S.!

Great nose! Very noticeable coconut with the coffee. More than a pleasant surprise from Funky Buddha. Very glad to have it. Thanks Tom S.!
