Comment by Lee Chameleon on November 30, 2009 at 12:24pm - Yes! It tis the season for browns. This weekend I tried Pullman Brown Ale, Dark Horse One Oatmeal Stout and the Goose Island Christmas ale. Fantastic drinking. The Dark Horse was delectable. Dark and smokey. The browns were good however the Goose had a little much carbonation for my taste. I'm still waiting on GI's Bourbon County. It's going to be a tasty winter in Chicago.

Comment by Chipper Dave on August 16, 2009 at 8:17am - I believe it's finally starting to get cooler outside. That can only mean one thing. Soon it will be dark beer season. All those stouts I've been saving up will soon be ready to open. Anyone else ready for some dark beer? I've got a bottle of Deschutes The Abyss hidden away. Plan to open that up for the upcoming NFL kickoff weekend.

Comment by TheBrewClub on April 8, 2009 at 10:40pm - Had the Youngs awhile back, very nice beer. I'm just finishing up a bunch of different Milk Stouts. Left Hand, Duck Rabbit, Lancaster, Keegan, and the Kitachino Sweet Stout. Sorry to say, but I think I'm ready to move on to something lighter for awhile!

- Recently enjoyed a Young's Double Chocolate Stout and a Sam Adams Imperial Stout. Very worth brews. About to pop open a North Coast Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout that I've been aging in my basement for a year.

Tried Pizza Port InFamous last night...a Chocolate Russian Imperial Stout, delicious!
All time favorite dark beer would have to be Old Rasputin on NITRO.

- It's a limited release. I stumbled across it in my local Hy-Vee store after a bad day at work.

- I believe I've seen that here in Colorado as well. Never tried it but hope to try soon.
