A few days ago was my "bachelor party", which basically involved drinking a bunch of great beer. So here's some reviews:
2000 Lou Pepe Gueuze. Unfortunately for me I opened this when I was pretty wastey-faced, though I definitely remember loving it. That's not really saying a lot. Fortunately I have another that I'll need to open when I can actually taste it.
2012 Eclipse Grand Cru (3 Liter), enjoyed with my good friend Jean Van Roy (and yes, someone did manage to toss a ring onto the penis). I was pretty underwhelmed with this blend when it first came out, but it has actually aged really well. The 3 Liter is no exception, it was great.
Iced Eclipse (2011). It's solid, but it's nothing spectacular, just like always. I'm actually not sure this has changed much since the last time I had it, which was 2 years ago.
Bourbon Vanilla Dark Lord (2013). There have been recent reports that this has gone downhill, but I totally disagree, I think I liked it better with a year on it. Regardless, this bottle was still excellent, in that way that makes me wonder why FFF bothers to make anything else since it's all garbage.
There were a few others that we had, but after the 3L (I drank a pint...) I was pretty solidly gone, so I won't bother listing them.
