50 Beers to Try Before You Die
Thought the beer snobs here might like this article (and probably critique the hell out of it).
http://www.wisdeo.com/articles/view_post/2984 (CBS) You've heard of "100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall"? How about 50 to try before you die?!
Spoiler!

Had to steal a photo, as I forgot to take one before scootering to the couch (damn ankle surgery), but drinking this right now:
![]() BA English Barleywine that's damn ****ing good. Nice barrel flavor, incredibly smooth for 13% - not a bit of harshness. |

If you like Boulevard's Bourbon Barrel Quad, I would guess that you'd enjoy a BBA barleywine... or if you ever drink a strong ale. |

It's also worth noting that English vs American barleywines are significantly different. American barleywines are much more hopped, which despite being a giant hop head, I don't love - I much prefer an english barleywine. They're sweeter and smoother, and much easier drinking.
My all-time favorite BA barleywine is Sucaba, from Firestone Walker. If you have access to FW, see if you can find one. |

In the world of beer and bourbon overlap, Revolution here in Chicago is part of the new WhistlePig Sasquatch series, a one off cask finished project.
Rev sent them 3 barrels of freshly dumped Cuvee de Grace for the project. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUqw8TEg..._web_copy_link |

Boulevard must have got tired of hearing they suck at stouts, they're on a roll lately! This one isn't quite as good as the Magic Drip imo (because I love coffee stouts) but still very tasty and almost as strong @ 13.3%

I meant to post a link to that the other day... saw it on FB and then promptly forgot about it. Will definitely pick up a 4 pack once it makes it here.

Forever respect for Boulevard, they got me into craft beer and its what's in the glass that ultimately matters but they have some of the least exciting packaging and formats.
Anytime I see Boulevard try and do something fun ![]() I'd still try them all though. |

There's of course a lot of middle ground between those though. |

On my second one...this shit is VERY sweet, if you don't like pastry/dessert stouts don't waste your money. I'm enjoying it very much though.
