Received from Deschutes Brewery today…
A UPS package arrived from Deschutes Brewery today, containing the two newest bottles that I’ve mentioned to death here lately: Black Butte XX and 20th Anniversary Wit.
They’re in the fridge now, though I likely won’t have a chance to drink and review them until next week. But I’m practically rubbing my hands together and cackling maniacally over them.
I tried the BBXX on Monday night — and really enjoyed it.
ALTHOUGH – our local CHAOS brew from Barley Brown’s smokes it as far as initial taste and lingering flavor.
BBXX is nowhere near the hype that is deserved of my favorite brew = Abyss.
I haven’t had my bottle yet, but I have to say I REALLY enjoyed the draft version of XX. Really, really.
Of course, you realize I must now try the Chaos.
