Bottle Share: Brooklyn Verticals and Rooftop Sippers...


Brooklyn Verticals and Rooftop Sippers...


Nice little bottle share that was the start of the rooftop sipping season !

Not pictured was this tasty lil crusher:
Cigar City Stiftung Berliner Weisse

Overall all the beers consumed on this perfect sunny day to close out May were worth the taste with the exception of Green Monster, that was an abomination !

Here is the rundown:

Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout 06/07. 07/08. 08/09. 09.10
(all were tasty 07/08 was probably my favorite with some layered dried blueberry notes that worked nicely with the roasty cocoa and even touches of kola nut and anise)

Brooklyn Black Ops 2011, 2012, 2013
(Overall again all were worth the sip, the 11 was a touch thin with lots of champagne yeast character that added some dusty musty fruit notes that made this one my least favorite. The 12 and 13 were similar but the 13's bourbon character stood out as a reason to consume this beer on the fresher side)

From here Im just gonna lay out the rest of the beers consumed in order of my personal preference:

Northcoast BA Old Stock Brandy 2011
Cigar City Leon
Logsdon Far West Vlaming
Cascade Tangerine Dream
Wicked Weed Black Angel
Cisco Dark Woods
10 Barrel 16 barrels

and at the very bottom and highly recommended to let this one pass by...
Deschutes Green Monster
