    Flossmoor Station Imperial Schwartz & Finlaggin Scotch. Bought two of both. Yup I'm I sucker for waxed caps.
    Made myself finish the the one of both I opened. The others are in the cellar with the Frangelic Mountain Brown hoping for a miracle.

    There are three that I distinctly remember:

    1 was a Voodoo Bacon Maple Ale from Rogue... Blech and I'm not sure I want to risk the latest offering either...

    2 and 3 were White wine barrel 11/11/11 and Red wine Saison du Buff, both $15 and pretty terrible IMO

    Orval Trappist Ale
    GI Matilda

    Either I'm not a fan of Belgian Pales or both of these were bad bottles

    The Matilda I would swear was infected, because I almost tossed cookies on the second sip. It was just rancid.
    The Orval I simply didn't care for (it smelled similar to Matilda - only I was able to barely drink it.)

    Also, but not quite as bad, a 2008 Three Philosophers that I thought was at least a year past it's prime.
    I was able to take the remaining 3 bottles back for a refund.

    Infinium
    Buffalo Bills Pumpkin Ale (WTF was I thinking??)
    Stella Artois
    SN Tumbler (don't kill me! I wanted to like it but it tasted horrible to me, the only SN beer I don't like)

    Beer of the Gods. Was just tasteless and boring. And Pumking.. tasted like someone stuck a pumpkin pie and bag of sugar in a blender and then bottled it. Couldn't take more than two sips.

    Did you have this when it first came out? I thought it was pretty darn good.

    A friend of ours was just in Northern California and knew I loved Pliney and that Russina River is not distributed in Idaho, so she picked up $240 work of beer for my wife without any direction at a Whole foods- picking many Russian rivers and other expensive beers. I am not a huge sour fan, and she picked out many sours- apparently these beers need to be aged. I couldn't tell if the bottle had gone south- or if it was supposed to be that bad. I am a cheap a$$ and rarely drain pour. One such beer was highly rated Deschutes "The Disident"..... yuck.

    BROWN SHUGGA. I DESPISED that beer.I might be alone, but I really thought that it was one of the worst beers I have ever had. I choked down the first, waited a few weeks to try it again and ended up drain pouring it. Gave the rest to a friend.
