Lamb Virgin

First time I've ever cooked lamb before. Until tonight.

I got a boneless leg of lamb from costco. Marinated for 1 day, ground it up with the coarse blade, turned it in to patties, and left it another day. Grilled them up, put it on toasted, buttered soft portugese rolls.

Marinade:
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 stems lemon thyme
2 stems citrus mint
2T salt
5 cloves garlic
heaping scoop of grainy mustard
Olive oil

Puree, lather, refrigerate.

Rochefort 10

Similar to the 6 and 8.
All of them are ok, but I need to bein the mood for something sweet.

Rochefort 8

Not as heady, smell is like the 6, but... Almost a little cheese?

Not as much carbonation, better balance, not as cloying.

It's adequate.

Rochefort 6

Pours a slightly hazy medium brown with tones of amber. Highly carbonated, smells like candy a bit-sweet and fresh.

Very carbonated, followed by a bit of candi flavor and then a little crispness. Not bad.

BFM Cuvee Alex Le Rouge

Dark opaque brownish black with a hint of cloudiness and no head. Smells of sour like raspberry and chocolate.
Reasonably silky mouth feel, especially for a sour. High carbonation, touch of moderate sour, then darkness. There's a pause between the sour and the chocolate and then immediately dark roasted bitter.

mission brewery dark seas, russian imperial stout

Quickly dissipating chocolate head. Appears dark and opaque, only a bit of translucence at the edges.

Aroma is overwhelmingly of chocolate milk made with hershey's chocolate syrup.

Clean, dark bitterness on the front which clears and moves to a toasty, roasty long finish which lingers and a touch of the chocolate from the nose.

This is good beer.

It's a bit thin, sweet, and strong for lots of drinking.

Wells Banana Bread Beer

Very good brown ale. Definitely reminiscent of bananas and grain in the finish. Much better and less campy than I expected.
