Day 25: Number 25 by Kyle Hefley

[Scott H]

Sorry for being a day late here, but day 25 is called... wait for it... "Number 25" by Kyle from the store! According to him:

"Please note that operating heavy machinery may become difficult after or while consuming Number 25. Stay at home enjoy the company of family and friends and take joy that the holidays are nearly over! "

I'm sure Kyle will be happy to add details of this delicious brew.

I wish it were like 20 degrees inside tonight. I love this.

Hey I didn't get a #25??

[Scott H]

Are you sure? Kyle laid them on top of each calendar set. You sure you didn't set it somewhere?

[spidermonk]

I'll give another look when I get home, keeping my fingers crossed

[bryan]

Well this will get you drunk alright

I just had my #25. Wow! Big, rich, strong imperial stout. I loved it.

Thanks for the bonus, Kyle. If you have the recipe to post, I'd love to see it.

Wow, this was a powerhouse! I really liked this one Kyle. Nice dark roasted flavor, but the dominating flavor I taste is black licorice. Normally I'm not a fan of anise, and I'm not even sure if you intended that in this beer, but I definitely tasted it through all 12 ounces. In a nutshell, I felt like a debonair playboy drinking this one out of my snifter. Thanks for sharing this, I'm sure 24 of these were hard to part ways with. I second the request for a recipe, and technique, because I imagine that this was not an easy one to ferment.

Crisis adverted, I found it lose in my box, I'll be trying this guy tonight

[Scott H]

Yay! Good luck, Number 25 is a wild ride!
