You're probably thinking to yourself "Wow, two bottles! Scott must have really liked this Captured by Porches Blackbird Stout!" NO!!! What you are seeing here is a photograph taken a mere five minutes preceding something that I have never before been privileged enough to experience: the elusive double drain-pour. Here's what happened: I had a bottle of Blackbird Stout in my fridge for about a week and a half. I've been skunked before with CbP and their swing-top bottles, so I don't like to leave them sitting around for too long. I popped the top, poured a glass, snapped a photo, took a sip, and scrunched my face in disgust. The beer poured with a fair amount of frothy head, so I'm not entirely sure what went wrong here, but it doesn't seem like the swing-top is necessarily to blame in this case. Taste is more similar to a porter than a stout, but this bottle had the strong, off-putting sour, acidic twinge of an infected beer. Yuck!! I flipped the top back onto the bottle, put it back in the fridge, and headed out the door to the bottle's beer-store-of-origin, Belmont Station, where I grabbed a replacement from the fridge. Round-trip time: about 30 minutes. Imagine my disappointment when I opened up this new bottle, compared the two side-by-side, and was met with the exact same result: nasty, infected, skunked beer. Well, fuck. This is the first time I've had the heart-breaking experience of pouring two entire bombers down a drain. I generally like Captured by Porches beer, and though I've had quality issues with them one other time in the past, I never thought twice about picking up one of their new seasonals. This experience has, without a doubt, changed my thinking quite a bit. Has anyone else out there tried Blackbird Stout? Was this just some abysmal luck on my part?
