Split one with Lynne, earlier.. We both thought it was pretty good.

Had this recently. Tasty, smokey as hell. I know Stormland loves it, and i quite like it.

This one was a complete surprise. I hadn't even heard about it coming to the LCBO, but that is probably because it's a local. I liked it a lot. Quite reminiscent of the Gouden Carolus Cuvee Van De Keizer Blauw, but a little dryer from the spices, and bourbon barrel aged, and boy can you tell. I loved the woody taste this gave off along with the spices. Lots of cinnamon in the taste and smell. A big wiff of it gives off a lot of cinnamon. Mos complaints i read were that is wasn't beery enough, but that is the style, so i totally expected what i got, just wasn't expecting it to be as good to me. Loved it, and I'm glad I grabbed another to age. I'm excited about this one. Not sure it's for everyone, but it's for me!

I gotta say, I am jealous...You guys are drinking some tasty ass stuff!

We finally tried the Wells Banana Bread Beer...very yummy, could taste the banana right away...

I'm sure everyone in here is happy to say...

+1!

lol

He is a review on it.

My only real complaint about this beer is the strange after-taste it gives. Other than that, very banana'ie indeed.

Yeah, we noticed it too. For drinking it out of a bottle, it seemed like we were getting a metallic after taste...on the roof of the mouth...tinny....especially on the exhale...but the banana was sweet on the tongue upon sipping it.

Nice, thanks. I've been meaning to check it out. Watch. . . it's gonna be the beeraholic, :P

Awww.. ALbinorino, just as good!

I find myself disagreeing with him on what beers he likes and doesn't like. He hated the Peche Mortel and the Smashed Blueberry both of which i think are excellent.

I know, it is odd, but also he is like 30 something.

Haha, He couldn't even pronounce Westvleteren, and I had to shut it off when he and the other goofball said that even their Homebrew Quad was better.

Also, Peche Mortel is a fucking world class beer

A buddy shared this excellent imperial stout with me on NYE from a British Columbia brewery called Howe Sound Brewery. Wasn't sure what I was getting myself into with a name like Pothole Filler but it was pretty good. Slightly boozy being a 9%ABV but after a few sips I warmed up to it. Comes in a big 1L bottle.

I've been thinking of picking this up. What's the texture like?

I as well have to pick this up.

Seriously, what a room full of tools. They sure do make a lot of judgments about it after drinking less than a sample glass full. They don’t really even sound like they know very much about beer, I would venture a guess that my right testicular knows a lot more about beer than all of those dinks.

Either way, I guess they can at least say that they got to try it. I struck out when I tried to get a hold of some.

It was medium body with a bit of a slick oily texture rather smooth. Very smokey roasted taste but it has a lot of different flavour mingiling going on with it. If your a stout fan I'd say take a chance on it. If not you may want to avoid this one. The Beer Advocate rates it a 90 out of 100. Which is a very solid rating.

I quite often watch the albinorhino's reviews and enjoy them but that was one of the worst reviews I've ever seen. Way to many people trying to talk at once was annoying. If I was drinking a god damn monk beer with the price tag and rare availability that it comes with I'd be much more serious and sacramental about it.
