Mother's Day

Went down to Pelican Brewery in Pacific City for Mother's Day. The release of the Mother of All Storms Bourbon barreled Barleywine that they do. It is an English Style Barleywine aged in Kentucky Bourbon Barrels. It has caramel and toffee notes. The barrel brings out the complexity if the barleywine and is a real treat. While there I had their vintage vertical flight. They had the Stormwatchers Winterfest 2013, 2012, & 2011. This is the base beer for the Mother. Then they had Mother of All Storms 2014, 2013, & 2011. It was nice arrangement and should the changes of the flavors over the years. If you get a chance yo try it go fo it, it is worth the money and one of the best barleywines in the country. Cheers!  

It was the monster mash...it was graveyard smash

Enjoying a Monster Mash Imperial Porter from Lompac Brewing. It has a robust coffee flavor with a subtle smoke finish. It's flavor is Ghoulish! Cheers
