Catching Up 101922 - TeamECOS Fall Playoffs. #1 on left. Peachy, bit of funk. My bring

Purchased at Barrique Brewing and Blending

Catching up 10/12/22 - TeamECOS #8 - last checked in July '20. Cracked just before lights out, so no time to warm up. Hoping that's why this seems to have lost a bit of pizzazz, instead of adding to what it showed 2 yrs ago. My bring.

Purchased at Side Project Cellar

Catching up 10/12/22 - TeamECOS #7 - doesn't have the dank or complexity of Equilibrium/Toppling Goliath's King AL from earlier, but it does have a bunch of bright juicy citrus, esp lemon. Thx Kevin M.

Catching up 10/12/22 - TeamECOS #6 - last had this Apr '20. The tart cherry's faded just a bit, but this still punches w/ a nice pucker. Really gotta get this warmed to coax out the modest funk. My bring.

Catching up 10/12/22 - TeamECOS #5 - a throwback w/o adjuncts. Not quite BCBS-level, but solid. Thx Kevin M.

Catching up 10/12/22 - TeamECOS #4 - man, I really dug this. A tad malty, but couldn't get enough of the dank nose and general hoppy awesomeness. A few days after trying this John M. claimed he liked this better than King Sue. I'm so biased to love...

Catching up 10/12/22 - TeamECOS #3 - big blueberry nose, way less of it carried thru. Thx Kevin M.

Catching up 10/12/22 - TeamECOS #1 & #2 - DH sweep gets us into the playoffs. Started celebrating w/ this H2H duo. Even @ 7yrs I figured the BCBS regular would be solid (barrel, boozy and choco w/ molasses notes), but am very happy w/ how much fruit...

Catching up 10/5/22 - TeamECOS - def got some of the watermelon rind. A note of pickle juice note was there as well. My bring.

Catching up 9/28/22 - TeamECOS #10 - Just OK. Brewer description of "light" plum is spot on - none of us pulled much fruit (or hops for that matter). Easy drinking; showed some character, but a cut below the Casey Gost Note Kay Pearl Nectarine and the...

Catching up 9/28/22 - TeamECOS #9 - a modest (and exceptionally rare) misfire from SARA. Less hop & funk vs. Hill Farmstead's Self-Reliance: Citra from earlier. Tasty, but we'd already had a more complex version of the style. My bring. Thx Bret M.

Catching up 9/28/22 - TeamECOS #8 - I agree w/ Kevin M. (his bring too) - sweeter, nilla latte-style early gives way to a bolder, roastier finish. More pronounced after warming some. Thanks man.

Catching up 9/28/22 - TeamECOS #5 - this is the July '22 release. Liked this as much,maybe more, than the Motueka. Love the farmhouse yeast and barrel swirling w/ the hops. My bring.

Purchased at Hill Farmstead Brewery

TeamECOS #4 - Fairly pungent nose, But the flavor is more subdued, making this much easier to drink. Nice little hint of heat every so often on the back. Thx @ TJ

TeamECOS #3 - Batch C-22 btld Feb '22. Just a bit of barrel, bit of funk, but plenty of fruit and tart. Thanks Kevin M. Hopefully the dreaded 1hr break between games, and the beers, don't make our bats disappear.
