Drain pour for me too


Sunday 9/21
A sad day here...the first drain pour in quite awhile for me. This was the Avery Samael's Ale...this is an oak aged English strong ale. I expected this to be great...it had all the signs: oak, "strong ale," and the pedigree of being part of the "devil ales" series or whatever it's called. I liked the Beast and the Mephistopheles, so I thought this would be good too. It was not. Totally undrinkable. I gave it about 5-6 sips before I finally bailed. Awful. F-.

Two drain pours between us. Discerning tastes perhaps?

I was pretty close on another today too but sucked it up and finished...luckily this one got better as I went (although still not good). Stay tuned for the full review

That looks pretty terrible and flat from the picture.
