Mike Ranella is drinking a Senor Rhino '22 by Alesong Brewing & Blending
Killer! The rating is no lie. The cinnamon. The ancho chile. The bourbon barrel. The vanilla. Everything working in harmony. Super balanced. Maybe the age helped to meld it together. I’m also picking up a touch of coconut which elevates the decadence..

Mike Ranella is drinking a Green Down To The Socks by Other Half Brewing Co.
The last of a 4 pack so maybe not at its freshest point but still banging. Melange of tropical and berry notes. Superb creaminess. Some earthiness with a mellow hop bite. Damn good and drinks way below the 8% abv. OH has been consistently good.

Mike Ranella is drinking a Black Briar by Strange Roots Experimental Ales
Bottle
Oh, forgotten, Draai Laag, how we miss thee. I honestly don’t know how old this bottle is but I’ll guess around 2017/2018. Carbonation still in tact. Rich, sour power punches you. Vinous. Oak barrel and just a tinge of remaining blackberry.

Whoa. The average rating here feels way too low. Loving the addition of passion fruit. It’s just enough to amp up the pop of double ipa. Juicy, musty (in a good way), fruity and bright. Dangerously crushable.
