Kevin GaminFermented Friday – Winking Lizard Tavern
Back at the Lizard for the second week in a row. If I had known, I’d have joined the beer tour this year. https://medi-nerd.com/2026/02/20/fermented-friday-winking-lizard-tavern-8/
pejacobyRoaming gangs of trolls on motorcycles? Sorry, too damn cold for that action, they’re just on the bottle.
#3floyds Trolls Trolls Trolls help keep us warm! It’s a big one, barrel-aged, cocoa chocolate thick body, smooth with vanilla and a bourbon finish.
Gets dark mighty early, but we should gain more light soon. Tonight it’s dark InSiDe too.
#3floyds Black Colossus imperial #stout
Thick syrupy body of cocoa, vanilla, and cinnamon, hints of sweet and coffee, and a punch of spice and heat from the chili peppers!
Stopped by the kid’s house and their roommate asked me if I’d had a selection of beers. I had not - so he gave them to me! Good kid 😎
#3floyds Alpha Krampus Christmas Porter is first
Dark porter with a big hoppy bite and spiced finish. As with all 3Floyds, it’s not normal!
The pile of Monday work is colossal. 11 hours later it’s time to kick that in the…something
#3floyds Black Colossus BA stout
Sweet cinnamon and chocolate opener, rich syrupy body with coffee and spicy chili notes, ending with a lasting low-key burn.
What’s the lead…? Does there need to be one? or do we just settle into the end of the work week?
#3floyds Black Colossus barrel aged imperial #stout
Sweet open with lots of cinnamon, chocolate, and coffee in a thick smooth body. Closes with a spicy kick from the various added chiles.
When normal is just overdrive all the time, That’s Not Normal. And #3floyds gets it, turning out massive #stout like Black Colossus!
Sweet opener with cocoa, vanilla, and a cinnamon snap. Rich full bodied with coffee hints and a spicy finish that sneaks up and slaps you (lightly) in the face. Pasilla and Ancho Peppers!
Fermented Friday – August 22, 2025
Tonight, I returned to the Winking Lizard for the first time in weeks, adding beers 39 and 40 to my beer tour.
3 Floyds Munsterfest Marzen
A flavorful mix of malty and sweet, light and easy to drink. Nothing out of the ordinary for a marzen.
Revolution Sun Crusher Wheat Beer
This is a wheat beer, but it has some IPA hoppiness you don’t expect. Not too much and still enjoyable.

A day in the 90s, now the heavy weather moves in to rumble the evening and drop the temps into the low 70s! We’ve reached a Critical Mass of hot air.
And lookie here, #3floyds Critical Mass BA coffee #stout
Rich and full-bodied, thick with coffee and chocolate and barrel-bourbon notes. Superb! #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer @beersofmastodon
Fermented Friday: 2025 Winking Lizard Beer Tour 21 – 3 Floyds Turbo Reaper IPA (204)
I’m not the only person who finds a hoppy IPA refreshing on a warm summer day? This one delivered all of that for me.
