Had a good time Saturday while visiting Brew Practitioner Brewery 45 Baldwin Street, East Longmeadow, MA in East Longmeadow. It follows that style I mentioned, as a local gathering spot. There was a decent band playing on Saturday afternoon and a pretty full house. Beers were all solid, nothing mind blowing. Talked to the brewer a bit, nice young guy.

Had several varieties of Bourbon County Stouts from Goose Island yesterday.

A buddy keeps these things for year's on end so we had some 2019, 2020 and 2023's yesterday.

The proprietors blend from what I was told is only for sale in the Chicago area. The 2020 Propietor's Blend was outstanding. Exactly was a Christmas beer should taste like.

I find about 3-5 years to be a nice sweet spot with a lot of the Bourbon County's. Past that goes downhill with oxidation, year 1 and 2 a bit hot.

That aligns with what we thought. We all agreed the 2020 was the best, the older ones were a bit blah and the 2023's were more a one-note flavor profile.

The variants should really be consumed in the first year. The adjunct flavoring drops off pretty quickly. But I agree on the base beer.

New London. Right on Rt 85. They will be moving to Grand Street this year. Bigger place.
i'd get there before they move... things do change. their current venue is a tight as hell squeeze admittedly.

I came out of there over xmas with an on theme taster glass that had liquid measure on the side.

Coincidentally, happy leap day.
