2015 Stone Double Bastard in the Rye
Still righteous after almost 2 years of aging in my cigar closet at 65 degrees. Maybe a tad sweeter, but what a monster!

I tried the double bastard ONCE. I like a lot of beers, but double bastard honest to God made my teeth hurt. It got easier and better, but damn, that is when I learned my limitations.
I have had several rye beers. Still on the fence. I rather liked the Guinness rye. |

The rye in this one comes from being aged in Templeton Rye Whiskey barrels. At 12.7% ABV, it is definitively NOT a "session" beer. Hell, it's not even a "drink with dinner" beer. It's an "after a heavy meal with a heavy cigar and don't even THINK about driving" beer.

It's also a "holy fuck, you want how much for that?" beer.

I love Stone, but haven't tried the DB. I have tried the Guinness Rye Pale, and I like it a lot.
