Relatively Wordless Wednesday

Wings…flame….smoke

KGB…not my favorite Russian Imperial Stout, but still drinkable, comrade.

The Baltic Porter from Smuttynose.  A sweetness made up of raisins and cherry takes off the subtle bitter edge of chocolate and coffee.  Superb.

Tally-Ho…no notes on this, but memorable in that it's a barelywine from Adnams.  A rarity in England as beer is taxed on every tenth percent of ABV.  Beers over 7.5% ABV are taxed even more.  I wonder if that's why it's 9% in the US, but only around 7% in the UK.

To steal a closing quote from my friend, Bruce.  Enjoy your Wednesday.
