Garún Icelandic Stout

Lyle Fass
9.6

This is 11.5%. That’s low for wine but crazy high for beer. But this pulls it off. It’s rich. And has dark chocolate and coffee flavors, which is classic stout. But it’s also fresh, textured and really long. There’s something Northern Rhone about it. Hard to describe. But that spirit is here. It’s like nothing I’ve had. A wine beer but still a beer. Quite incredible. The nose is crazy. Super aromatic. Like an old school Anchor Steam X-mas Ale vintage dated magnum from back in the day. Really incredible. — 3 years ago

This might be better than the Blueberry Sour. Unreal aromas. So fresh and so complex. Grapefruit, sweet apple flesh and lovely finesse. A stunning beer. — 4 years ago

Snorri Nr. 10 Spiced/Herb Beer

Lyle Fass
9.4

From what I’ve tasted this is likely my favorite Icelandic brewery. This is light, herbal, fresh and has a long finish that echoes with dried meyer lemon. What an amazing beer! — 3 years ago

Riserva Millecento Brunello di Montalcino 2010

9.4

Surprise! Still haven’t opened it so rating it is a “hope”…think I may have opened a bottle previously…was too soon but hints of greatness linger. These need 10 yrs+ but I think it’s time...2010 Brunello by a famed better winery…bought in Cortona, Italy, next door town to the Montalcino-Montepuciano twin towns of great Italian wine. Resisting the temptation is like resisting “The Borg”. (A Star Trek reference…where are you Capt’n Kirk?) — 5 years ago
