Kolek planning to go pro
Well, I picked up a 750 of it from Sendik's last night, so maybe I'll give it a year or so in the cellar and crack it out for Xmas next year and report back.
Had it last weekend - it's average. I just don't think Founders does a good job with barrel aged stouts. KBS nor CBS is that great. They are one of my top 3 breweries but this style is not great.
FYI, Discount Liquor held back Bourbon County, they still have some available for the asking at the registers. (It was in their add in the Sunday paper.)
Did they hold back the variants to?
AFAIK, no just the stout.
Unpopular opinion coming. I will take the Barrel Program at Central Waters over both.
Anyone try Jameson Irish whiskey Caskmates (finished in IPA barrels). I'm not a fan of IPA's (trend toward the malty side of the scale) but was curious as to what it might add to whiskey.
Yes it's terrible tastes watery. And considering Jameson isn't exactly full of flavor already that's saying something.
Has anyone had any experience with any Brooklyn Brew Shop home brew kits? I've got the Everyday IPA kit mash going on the stove right now while sipping on some New Belgium Voodoo Ranger. The last kit I used came out tolerable but far from good. I'm hoping this is a better recipe. Well, that, and hopefully I'm getting a little better at this with each batch.
We must be drinking different Jamesons. Whenever I have it, it tastes like Murphy's, Marquette Gyro, and bad decisions all wrapped into one drink.
Anyone have thoughts on 3 Sheeps? I haven't tried them yet, but I was looking into to who was making some new/good beer in MKE & Wisconsin and came across them.

Check out Third Space and Good City if you haven't already. Third Space makes some fun stuff, and GC makes some solid APA/IPAs.Outside of the area, I'm super intrigued by Untitled Art. Some of the styles are a little out there, but the beers I've had from them have been good. Price point is high, though.
I like the Baaad Boy Black Wheat.
Pretty sure that one has been discontinued.Raised Grain in Waukesha makes some of the best beers around town of the newer breweries. It might sound odd but the peanut butter porter from Westallion isn't bad.
