    Trial - was back home last weekend and found a new brewery that opened a few miles from my Dad's farm in Hebron, NY. It's called RS Taylor and Sons. They had a top 5 IPA that I've had anywhere. They just opened a few weeks ago and are in the middle of nowhere but if you feel like an adventure it's a great spot and I'd highly recommend.

    This is decent, I really like farmhouse ales. Not quite as good a Peeper but still good.

    Had a new brewery open up in the town I live in a couple weeks ago. For the most part their beers are pretty average but this IPA is fantastic!

    I like it. Hint of Burbon and not overly boozy. Holds up great after the pour and is solid through the whole glass.

    I finally got to try Mexican cake from Westbrook...more chili forward than I was expecting, delicious, but possibly overhyped

    Other brews from the sipping sesh included *****es bank from some obscure brewery in Indiana, think boozy liquid fudge brownies. Lastly, new glarus raspberry tart. Slightly sweet, super jammy raspberry flavor, and minimal tartness.

    Out of the three *****es bank was the highlight. Cheers!

    I just scored a few bottles of that...it doesn't rank super high on untappd but everyone I know who's sipped it, enjoys it. I may to crack one. How do you think it'd age?

    I wouldn't be afraid to put a bottle or two up. However I would drink one first and make a personal decision.It's pretty smooth for such a high abv ..not sure aging will get you much.
