Draft 12 oz pour at Postdoc for their anniversary. It’s only been a year? Crazy. Pours a clear golden color with a rocky foam head. Sour fruit and straw aroma. Flavor is a lot more sour up front than the regular version, which makes it better instantly. Slight straw background, with a cool and sour wheat finish. Surprised at the difference here the pineapple makes, without the pineapple being a dominant flavor. Overall an excellent beer here.

Someone beat me at the buzzer with adding this beer, and did a better job doing so anyway. That’s okay, I’m better at drinking beer than I am adding them to a database. Data entry has never been on my resume, but neither is beer drinking. It should be. Employers dig that quality in a candidate. Draft 12 oz pour at Postdoc. 2016 vintage! A bunch of people are here to take a tour of the brewery. I’m just sitting here drinking a beer and looking through the window towards the tour and narrating it myself. If you are reading this, it’s because I want you to know everything. My incoherent rambling on this site is surly going to be the source of my entertainment when my days are short. I know one thing, I’ll still be drinking beers like this one. If I’m not, then something very terrible has happened. This is probably the darkest beer I have ever seen. As dark as the living room in the middle of the night when you are waving your hand around like a shitty magician looking for the light switch. Aroma brings out hints of whiskey, chocolate, vanilla, and dough. Flavor is robust, rough up front, but smooths out. Like a good whiskey for me. I was looking forward to trying the regular side by side with this, but the regular conveniently disappeared upon the barrel aged release. The beer has a chocolatey, bourbon like coating mouthful finish, that is consistent with some of the greats in its style. Demon star imperial stout does sound quite familiar though. They asked. They said yes. I would have drank this beer if it had a far less intimidating name. This beer was great, and I rambled on for this long, because I feel like a beer like this deserves a long, detailed rating of how great it is. Though I know a good beer when I have one, putting on paper is much more difficult. So this length is partially a decoy. I loved the beer.

Draft pour to a snifter at the brewery. Pale golden yellow pour with a thin bubble ring head. Sour, slightly salt water aroma. Flavor heavy with lemon and other citrus. Dry, light finish. Quite tasty. Update: enjoyed a new batch at Postdoc, over a year later. This has really improved. Love the brett impressions here. Gentle tart. Really liked this.
