DOGFISH HEAD BREWERY - Chateau Jiahu Another interesting offering from Dogfish. "Ale brewed with honey and hawthorn fruit and fermented with grape juice."

BALLAST POINT BREWING COMPANY - Indra Kunindra Interesting to say the least. A Stout brewed with madras curry, cumin, cayenne, coconut, and kaffir lime leaf give this beer a unique flavor and spiciness. Seems like a well crafted beer, as all Ballast Point beers seem to be, but the flavor just didn't cut it for me. Glad I tried it, but not one I will be buying again any time soon.

SMUTTYNOSE BREWING COMPANY - Durty Mud Season Hoppy Brown Ale You would think I could have remembered having a beer with the name Durty in the fridge, but I didn't. The two different labels got me. Interesting brown ale with such a hop presence, but I really like it
Hides the 8.4% ABV really well. Glad I had a couple actually.

TYRANENA BREWING COMPANY - Carnal Knowledge Double Oatmeal Stout This is part of their Brewers Gone Wild series and I have really enjoyed every one in the series I have been able to find. This one I no exception. Excellent.

NEW GLARUS BREWING COMPANY - Enigma Classified as a "Flanders Oud Bruin". Not sure I have ever had anything labeled that before. Nice fruitness, mostly cherry, with a little sourness in the finish. Very interesting. Another beer done very well by New Glarus.

SIERRA NEVADA BREWING CO. - Narwahl Barrel Aged Imperial Stout 2014 As I much as I enjoy their base Narwahl, I was really looking forward to giving this one a try. It definitely didn't dissapoint. Probably one of the best barrel aged beers I have had.
When this was released, it didn't seem like many liquor stores even got it, and the ones that did, sold out the same day. I happened to stumble upon this at a small town liquor store a month or so after it's release. Glad I did, and even happier I have a few bottles aging in the cellar.

FULTON BREWING - Patience Barleywine I think I'm getting a little light headed just from opening this bottle. Solid 13.2% ABV, definitely a sipper. Alcohol is noticeable in the nose, but masked pretty well in the flavor. Nice cherry notes. I'm usually not a big fan of this style, but this is one of the better Barleywines I have had.

STONE BREWING CO. - Enjoy By 04-20-15 IPA Always one of my favorites. Wanted to save this one for 4-20 day, but I have plans that will not allow me to have it that day.
