Thread: The recommend-a-beer thread

Friday night - Flossmoor Station Pullman brown ale - nice. It's brewed with molasses so it's definitely got a sweet/malty profile with a unique slight bitter finish that seemed to mellow out during the beer.

Last night - Goose Island Nightstalker imp stout - 11.7% ABV, so yeah, this packed a whallop! Chewey, dark, matly but with a hoppy aroma present. Alcohol is not masked very much in this beer but it was smooth going down all the same. Loved this one!

If I get a chance today I have a bottle of Guinness foreign stout in the fridge.

damn! I'm gonna raid your fridge!

Goose Island is cranking out some great beers

So, Guinness foreign extra stout...basically everything that makes it Guinness is kicked up a couple notches. Guinness with bite. Reminds me of drinking a black and tan and getting closer to the middle when you start picking up more of the Bass Ale bite. Not bad.

Picked up the Sam Adams Winter 12 pack. Tried the Winter Lager. Still really good. Haven't tried the others yet.

Visited the Pour House after work yesterday and lo and behold they had just tapped a fresh keg of this year's Celebration Ale. Celebration is one of my all-time favs and a beer I always look forward too each year. Not sure if it's hit your local markets yet but, as always, I highly recommend seeking it out. It's consistently proven year over year over year to be one of the best holiday ales released here in the States. Go find it and enjoy!

Stormy, I love Celebration Ale. Will have to keep a look out for it.
