Alright kids, so aside from the Weekly Wine that we’ve been doing, I’ve also been collecting and grading the wines from my own collection. As a warning these will mostly be Merlot’s and Cabernet Sauvignon’s as that’s what I for the most part enjoy. Also the pictures were all taken post, because I decided Future Buffalo could handle the pictures. For the record I hate Past Buffalo.

Straffe Hendrik Quadrupel
Straffe Hendrik Quadrupel: 8/10 – We really liked this quad, nice and heavy beer. The Buffalo actually Erik Ferris’d it. One of our better finds from Armsby Abbey

Thornbridge Kipling Pale Ale
Thornbridge Kipling Pale Ale: 6.25/10 – Says it’s South Pacific (New Zealand) Style Pale Ale, but all that really does is bring an initial fruity taste followed by the bitterness. Better in our mind than other Pale Ale’s. The fruit by the way is Orange-y/Tangerine and Grapefruit as far as we can tell so it’s a good citrus without being all lemony or something else.

Wachusett Quinn Amber Ale
Wachusett Quinn Amber Ale: 5/10 – More like an Irish red ale instead of an amber. It blends that pit of spice with it’s beer, and overall it’s not bad, but it’s not a great beer.

Berkshire Brewing Company Coffeehouse Porter
Berkshire Brewing Company Coffeehouse Porter: 7.75/10 – This is hands-down my personal goto Coffeehouse porter. COFFEE COFFEE COFFEE. This is a good beer, but the coffee taste is rather prevalent so if you’re like me and not into coffee that much this can be a bit daunting, otherwise though please do buy.

Bink Grand Cru Dark Belgian Ale
Bink Grand Cru Dark Belgian Ale: 7.75/10 – There’s a nice bit of malted hops, reminiscent of a stout, but it’s not heavy enough. Surprisingly light for such an overproof beer.
