While we are still in late December and the days are often cold and there is still too much darkness, be reminded that we are on the long journey march back to summer, with every day getting just a little bit more daylight than the day before. Before you know it, we will be enjoying the summer solstice!

Meanwhile, this is still a great season for enjoying an imperial stout collaboration from @autumnarchbeer and @revbeer – “Path of the Sun”. This is the second version, also aged in Woodford Reserve Bourbon Barrels for five months but with a raspberry addition in the final month. Heavy fruit and roast flavor is followed by decadently pleasant oak & bourbon notes. 😋 I did enjoy the first one, finished with coco nibs on day 21, but I think I like this one even more. The 2 bottle set made for a delicious set and I hope these two awesome Delaware breweries team up again soon!
