Nice reviews brah. That habanero sculpin harsh Agreed that it isn't good compared to the regular stuff. I've yet to come across a beer that has chili pepper added that I enjoyed. The novelty of it is cool i guess, but do I want a full pint of liquid carbonated peppers? Nah.
I tried BCBS for the first time yesterday alongside 2013 & 2014 Parabola.
I love the fact that BCBS comes in 12 oz. bottles, and it is a great value at roughly .50/oz.
In terms of personal preference I thought 2014 Parabola > 2013 Parabola > BCBS.
Don't know if the Parabola recipe changed from last year to this year but the 2014 seemed better balanced and smoother than 2013.
I also tried The Lost Abbey's Agave Maria. I've never had anything like it. I wasn't sure what to expect from a tequila barrel-aged brew but I must say it was quite enjoyable.
I've been reading that the 2013 parabola was hot in comparison to the other years. Apparently from your review, letting it sit a year didn't mellow that out.
