That's the old label. How long have you had that?
less than a week
ok now on for a revisit of youngs double chocolate stout
pour brown with a half finger of head pitch black with a halo of red
aroma cofee and chocolate.
taste coffee dark malts that melt in your mouth into lovely smooth chocolate.
its dark and smooth but its still chewy like a good stout i could see a few of these going down realy well.
9/10 i remember now why i liked this so much.
Ok Boys and Girls this is one your going to want to try. I found this Dogfish Head brew that I haven't had before and it is good! It's called Red and White. 22oz bottle and 10% ABV. The bottle says it's an Ale brewed with Coriander and Orange Peel and with Pinot Noir juice added with 11% aged in Pinot Noir barrels and 89% aged on Oak Staves.
What this produces is an Ale that has an aroma and initial taste that reminds me of the dogfish Head 90 minute IPA, one of my favorites. On the back end you gt the overtones of the Pinot Noir. The Coriander and Orange peel come in as almost an after thought of the flavor profile. Together these flavors blend into a really good beer that would fig together with a great steak off the grill or just chillin out back. Which ever way you choose you'll want to give this beer a try.
Here's some pics:
Look at that great color in the glass!
Cheers,

well an other re visit
this ones samuel smiths imperial stout
pour is brown but in the glass its black you can see small amounts of red comeing though the center when held to light 1.5 finger head that stays a while and laces well
aroma dark malts
taste burnt malts and a kick of alcoholl but its not unplesent
drinkability its a heavy chewy stout so dont expect many to go down
i'd give it a 8/10 now that i'v got more stouts under my belt its gone down in the ranks still great but not as great as others.

you lucky bugger! i cant even get that stuff here all i can get fullers wise is the organic.
ok under wheebz sugestion i picked up a bottle of Leffe blond.
pour golden with a 2 finger fluffy white head that dies down to a small island almost no laceing
aroma verry faint hops
flavor a fine balance between hops and malts almost no bitterness kinda generic but its nice.
drinkability its easy to drink but its pretty strong woudlent take to many of these to get ya going a nice lighter flavored beer.
i'd give it a 7/10 personaly.

Life's good today!!!
new one
its a canadian made strong beer. pours opaque amber with a frothy white head that dies down after a while with no lacing
aroma is kinda fruity
taste hoppy but not bitter its kinda fruity tasting but i can taste the caramel malts too
its got heavy carb since its secondary in the bottle but its fairly smooth im sure someone could drink one of these. its a bit of a bruser though at 8%abv
my only niggle is with the cork... its too big to go back into the bottle so you either have to cut the cork or drink it in one go.. and its a bit hard to get 750ml down in one go specialy since theres no glass big enough.
i'd give it a 6/10 its good but its just not my style
ps i may be alergic to it.. i drank that glass and 3/4 though it i started sneezing uncontrollably and my throat seems to have sewelled up so im definately going to avoid this if thats what really happend. (i'v got half a bottle left and will test again to see if its true. will edit at a later time to tell you my findings.

Ooh, the old depth charger! Try one with a shot of drambuie instead of vodka! YUM
well of course they are both made using the same ingredients. so they would mingle well.

I had friend bring some of that over and he left 3 of them in my fridge. I opened one the next day and gave it a go. I can honestly say this is the first beer I've tasted that I honestly hated. Got through about 3 swigs and dumped it out (or gave it to the dog, I cant remember). Either way, not bashing. Garbage in my opinion.. Sorry about the mini rant, I just couldnt pass up the oppertunity to speak my mind on this stuff hahaha!
