for those of you who don't know, i am a HUGE fan of dark beers. im a stout drinker, through and through. well, i went to the plaza (thanks lori) and got some stouts recommended by the woman working that night. my trial of the evening, the Bourbon County Brand Stout, is the most intense stout i've had to date by far. let's just im a Guinness drinker. it's like water to me, and this stuff is hard for me to choke down.
the beer is aged in 16 year old bourbon barrels for 100 days, making the sucker taste like bourbon upon initial impact with the tongue. the stout molasses flavor comes initially after you swallow. however, it does have a little bit of the burning sensation that comes along with hard alcohol after you swallow as well.
well, im done being a beer critic for the evening. but if you're feeling bold, go try a Bourbon County Brand Stout from Goose Island Beer Co. (however, if you're out somewhere, have a DD as the stuff is 13% alcohol by volume)

I thought of you last week because I had a very intense dark beer. it was native to Guatemala. :) aren't you proud?
it'd be better if I could remember the name though... danget. haha.
