Yep, already made the 8 hour round trip back to Indy. Getting a pour of derivation #6 was a nice surprise. I didn't realize the hype would cause it to be sold out by 2 pm on a random Wednesday, but I'm glad I got there extremely early.

Glad you made it. I saw some meltdowns on the Web today and thought of your post. Enjoy.

Careful with those 2015s, a bunch of them are lacto and brett infected and will go sour over time. I got lucky with all of my 2015s and didn't have any that were bad, but I had a lot of friends that were not so lucky.

2016... I probably only bought a bottle or maybe two of 2015, I got tired of searching for them on Black Friday in KC, one bottle at a time. I didn't pick up any 2016 in KC, but moved here at the end of December and they still had 5 cases laying around.

I've still got a few bottles left of 15 BCS, but I didn't think last year was as good, so it's been a harder drink.

I've still got a 14 Abyss too to drink sometime.

I think 2016 is fantastic, because it already tastes like it's sat in my basement for 6-8 months. I thought previous years were almost a little too boozy when opened right away, but they would smooth out as long as I could ignore them until summer of the next fall.

Emptying out my beer closet as it starts to warm past cellar temps due to the warmer weather.

It's not '13/'14 good, but much better than '15. I enjoyed the chipotle tingle.

TimBone was kind enough to send me a few beers... starting with the gingerbread stout this evening, which is quite tasty.

Enjoying an Old Stock Ale 14. Nice and smooth

Buffalo Bayou puts out great stuff. Relatively expensive but great.

I'd put Pumpkinator up there with Crown Valley Pumpkin Smash (as much as I usually agree with beeradvocate ratings, not sure I'd put it +4 over Crown Valley's though). It's not as heavy, but just as smooth and tasty.

For those that don't know - HAMMS has recently pushed to redistribute!

I HAVE HAMMS AGAIN!!!

Trying the bourbon quad from boulevard. Thought the cinnamon and vanilla notes of the Russell's Reserve would pair nicely.

Glad you're enjoying those. I'm not real big on stouts, but those two I sent you are ones that I grab a couple of at least once a year.

You're right. They do. They might be the most underrated brewery in Houston. Maybe I'm not as in touch with the Houston beer scene as much as I think I am, but I never hear any one mentioning them when talking about top breweries in Houston.

Didn't realize this was $33 for 22oz until I paid for it, but it's really damn good... hard to put my finger on the taste, there's a lot going on. 14.6% ABV, but can't tell at all.
