Mark Donkers is drinking a SuperFunky Honey Buns Pastry Stout by SuperNatural Brewing and Spirits at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From last Xmas eve. It was a big, sweet, turtle pastry stout with light pecan and choc notes. Pretty big at 15%. It was a nice gift from Chris Lee that I shared with Conal M.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Spruce Tip by Eastern Market Brewing Co at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From xmas eve at Conal M.'s. Another gift from Harry W. Now this shit is my jam. Spruce tips and juniper with a good mouthfeel gives you all the sweet as well as the aforementioned goods. Right up my tastehole.

Karl Meyer: Yes ! I love spruce tips, or juniper berries used in place of hops. I’ve never drunk one that wasn’t very interesting.
Mark Donkers: It's funny, I absolutely hate the Short's one, but usually they are really well done. I'm only 9 months behind in check-in's. Catching up.
Karl Meyer: Mark D.: How you do dat ?
Karl Meyer: Mark D.: I can’t remember what I did five minutes ago ! 👍🍻🤪🍻👍
Mark Donkers: I have a memory for beers/tastes
Mark Donkers is drinking a Kölsch by Drafting Table Brewing Company at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From xmas eve at Conal M.'s, a gift from Harry W. - this is another one from Drafting Table that is right on the nose for the style. I wish they'd release this in late Spring, as it's crisp and refreshing, with just a little mouthfeel.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Sagittarius by Ferndale Project at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From last December. As with most of FP's zodiac stouts, this is damn good. Chocolate and marshmallow with just a hint of nuttiness. Not the best in the series, but very delightful.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Scoop by Five Shores Brewing at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From last December. A thinner milk stout without that traditional heavy mouthfeel finish, this has lots of cocoa and a nice vanilla essence. Just a tad too thin.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Sweet Potato Soufflé - Triple Barrel Aged by Odd Side Ales at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From last December at Conal M.'s, a gift of Eddy B. - not my favorite of the sweet potato souffle's, this one has a lot going on with aforementioned sweet potato, cinnamon, but blasts of rum sweetness, and a little cloying on the finish.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Bourbon County Brand Stout (2015) 14.3% by Goose Island Beer Co. at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From November at Conal M.'s. BCBS holds up well too. This one was well enjoyed. All that chocolate, light vanilla, and little booziness. Well done prior to the sellout. Rating is original.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Scorpio by Eastern Market Brewing Co at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From November at Conal M.'s. Mostly, Ferndale Project is unfuckwithable, but this one is a miss in their zodiac series. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and chai? Nossir, I don't like it. Decent mouthfeel, however.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Corona Extra by Grupo Modelo at Nickel Plate Road Bar
Live. Won't change my rating, but hanging with Tim.
Karl Meyer: Substandard brews are somehow much better with friends who like them better than you do.

Mark Donkers is drinking a French Toast Night Fury (2020) by Witch's Hat Brewing Co. at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From October. Fury in a Box. This was one of the better if not the best out of it. Breakfast in a beer. Nice cinnamon, vanilla, with a good amount of maple, and the lucious fury taste. Near top shelf.

Mark Donkers is drinking an Into the Murk by City Built Brewing Company at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From October. Not a fan of Nelson and its wine essence, but this is a thick and dank. Good, but not a top tier neipa imho.

Mark Donkers is drinking a CYNOSURE (cherry boysenberry) by HOMES Brewery at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From October. A little sweeter than your normal Cynosure, this one is thick with awesomely high amount of boysenberry, and a light cherry taste. Lightly sour. Another winner.

Mark Donkers is drinking a White Tail Unidragon by Clown Shoes at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From October. Some old cellar bullshit from 2016. Held up alright. Kind of thinned out a bit, but not funked like other Clown Shoes I've had recently. I thought it was second tier CS back then, and it stayed that way.

Mark Donkers is drinking a Blueberry Crumble by Red Clay Ciderworks at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From October. This is perhaps the best goddamn fruited cider I've had, and I've had a few. It tastes just like a blueberry crumble pie in cider form. I figured it was full of fake ingredients, but it's all natural from the brewer. Nice job, Jamie.

Karl Meyer: Mark, help our brothers at FP out; give ‘em a rating.
Mark Donkers is drinking a Happy Glamper by Ferndale Project at Nickel Plate Road Bar
From September over at Conal M.'s. This one was a tad more bitter than most of their juice bombs. A little less mouthfeel and citrus forward. Enjoyable, but not as much as the others.

From last Xmas eve. A gift from Harry W., this banger was a pretty delicious with coffee and coconut, as well as all that thiccness and choc. Thanks Harry. Shared this one with Conal M. in better times.
