    Hitting Tavour stash...

    French Toast Imperial Stout by Hubbard's Cave out of the Chicago metro area.

    Second of two that I had. Yes... it tastes like french toast.

    I like really like the Freemont head full of dynamite series. I have the last two in the fridge waiting for a nice day off. The knob creek rye is also a great .

    I'm trying 3 new from 10barrel along with the apocalypse.

    Boozy 11% Sweet and Malty, but perhaps a bit too much alcohol? Curious as to how this would taste after aging.

    I'm sure it would age well. Aging seems to round the high and low tones. What makes it fun is to try the same year of a specific beer as it ages. Some will fall off while others really improve. The higher alcohol beers seem to age better for me.

    cellared properly they age extremely well. If you have a spot in your house that holds steady at around 60-65F... although you could venture up to lows 70s... with little daylight. Then drop a bottle or 6 there. Mark them... they’ll likely improve steadily over the next few years. Stouts, especially imperials like this, can be cellared and will continue to evolve for upwards of 5-7 years. After about 7 they’ll slowly start to degrade.

    I'm vaping bleach. Then I grind up and snort a line of hydroxychloroquine.

    I'm gonna head that Corona Virus off at the pass. I would like to thanks the folks over at "Fox and Friends" for the heads up.

    I took the long way to Holy Mountain today and had a beer along the way on Snoqualmie Pass.



    At Holy Mountain I picked up Infinite Visions IPA and a crowler of Sins of Memphisto IPA

    A glass of Merlot, four nights running. For the price, H3 Merlot is not a bad buy. I have been a wine member of various boutique (and more expensive than I’d like) wineries. I love the distinctness of each, but for a high production wine, it doesn’t taste mass produced. And you’re supporting a Washington biz.

    For that matter, Indian Wells and CSM Canoe Ridge Merlots aren’t bad bets either.
