Somehow I feel compelled to comment on a beer carrying my name (albeit a nickname). The aroma of this one is pure monkey juice and while the flavor is acceptable although dominated by bananas
I just cannot find a Weyerbacher offering I find exceptional, even their best come off as mediocre. Once again I'm left disappointed.

Its because of posts like this that I have seen over the years that I have never bothered to pick one up, hence have never tried a Weyerbacher.

I remember an excellent vintage bottle of Blithering Idiot several years ago. I think it was marked 1998, but I may be wrong. It was one of my favorite barley wines ever even though when I tasted it it was probably 6 or 7 years old. That said, I don't go out of my way to taste their usual offerings.

Actually upon reflection there was one which was quite good. Their Double Simcoe IPA was a fine beer. But of the notes I had handy shouldn't more than 1 out of 15 be stellar?

eh - even that one left me thinking there's at least 25 IPAs I would rather be having at this moment.
never tried Blithering - mainly because I've been gunshy on purchasing given my other experiences.

And I'm not a fan of Simcoe hops. It's just not a pleasant aroma for me. bouef
