Sammy Smith Oatmeal Stout..... working well on this damp, cool day. Big, rich, sweet...... always good...

Stone Brewey Vertical Epic, 10-10-10 release. A Belgian.
I am not a big fan of this style of beer. But having had all of the other releases I did not want to miss it.

Came across a couple 4 packs of 2009 Brooklyn Black Choco Stout so of course it made sense to pop one open and enjoy.

I had a Jeti with the soft chocolate and pica nut cake for dessert yesterday and Brooklyn black chocolate stout 2009 with the same cake today. The paring didn’t work out at all yesterday and I wasn’t as fond of the beer itself ether al row I have liked it before, but today the paring was perfect. I had my 81-year-old mother for dinner and she felt the exact same way despite hardly not being a beer drinker at all in her life.

Trying an Old Rasputin Imperial Ale. Rasputin would have loved this.
Black, rich and toasty. This stuff is darker than Guinness and needs a spoon.
Also enjoying a Paulaner Oktoberfest-Märzen. Malty, slightly sweet and some hop finish. Clean and crisp. You can drink these all night. That's what it's brewed for.
Chimay Blue and Chimay Red. Two killers in my book!

Hey Joe did you try your Guinness FES?
I tried a couple of porters tonight but they ended up down the drain, as they seemed insipid. Too much porter today, and stout, lacks enough bittering hop.
I had a scotch instead, my own blend.

Lately I've been enjoying the Michelada, not a beer but a beer cocktail.
It's a Mexican thing. I picked it up at my local soccer stadium.
There is no set recipe but I've been making mine with about 2 oz. of Clamato juice, a squeeze of lime, a splash of soy sauce, a few splashes of hot sauce, and a dash or two of celery salt, to which I add a bottle of Old Style (any lager will do).
Don't knock it till you've tried it.
