that sounds like it would be hit or miss but i would still be down to try it
im not a flavored beer dude but if you in a mood for some flavored shit, thats more alcohol than olde english..anything blueberry gotta taste better than olde english...you know that much.

that 90 min IPA that i posted is a real beer no flavored, just real good...5 times better than sierra nevada


apricot hefenwizen by pyrimid isnt bad either for some flavoved shit....for me as long as the acohol content is high i wont talk too much shit. abida from new orleans had a fucking nut flavored (no homo...nuts as in cashews) beer and that shit actually was tight.

i spend my drug profits on stupid shit like good beers and art supplies...so i know about it haha

IPA's = thumbs down.

I only really do ambers and darks. I HATE Pale Ales and Lagers...shit is foul.

And any beer that has fruit in it = poop.

There is a belguim beer that is only available there that has something like 28% alcohol in it and is $10,000 a "bottle" (its put in a champagne/wine bottle).

for anyone who likes guinness and stouts, but wants a smoother taste..



Here are the stats:

Widmer Snowplow Milk Stout
BREWERY: Widmer Brothers Brewing Co., Portland, OR, USA
FIRST BREWED: 2004
CALORIES/SERVING: 235 per 12 oz. bottle
BITTERNESS: 28 IBUs
ABV: 5.5%
ORIGINAL GRAVITY: 17° Plato (1070.25)
MALTS: Pale, Caramel 60L, Wheat, Oats, Carapils, Black, Roasted Barley
HOPS: Alchemy, Willamette
SERVING TEMPERATURE: 50°F (10°C)
FOODS TO PAIR WITH: "Rich and decadent dishes like London broil with demi glaze sauce," dark chocolate
AWARDS: 2004 GABF Gold Medal Award Winner (British stout category)

Most of the information came from Widmer's Snowplow page. The rest came in e-mails I sent to the brewery.

Now, when I mean dark, I mean that this beer is dark as the night itself. Its color reminds me of Guinness, but the Snowplow's head is a rich caramel color that lingered and almost overflowed my Widmer glass. The aroma was slight and appealing, making my nose very happy. The first taste was extremely smooth with a thick, velvety flavor that was reminiscent of chocolate beers. It finished clean with a slight milky/coffee aftertaste that was very pleasant to taste.

This is a great beer to enjoy over the winter holiday season in front of a nice roaring fire with that special someone as the snow is falling outside. It probably will even taste better than my bottle, which means that you'll enjoy it even more than I did.

Prost!

(if you can find this in summer...your liquor store dude is the man..)


btw i drank it with bites of hersheys chocolate and it was indeed on hit

If you're accustomed to drinking only American light lagers, then the following beer may be a bit of a challenge to you. Why? Chances are you think of beer as a drink you can readily enjoy while mowing the lawn or watching a baseball game on a 90+ degree afternoon. There are those beers, of course, but this isn't one of them. Likewise, you'd probably never associate a beer with dessert either. Just the thought of cracking open a Miller Lite to drink alongside your death by chocolate cake seems a bit ...well ... sickening, doesn't it? If you're this person, I encourage you to think outside the can. Beer is food. And as we all know, some food is better than other food.


Rogue's Chocolate Stout is truly one of my favorite American-made craft beers. I often enjoy this beer with a big chunk of Belgian dark chocolate, a brownie or that killer chocolate cake you'd only otherwise reserve for a tall glass of milk. But more often than not, I like it all by itself. A finely crafted stout with truly amazing flavors, Rogue's Chocolate stout is a dessert in and of itself.


Here's my review:


Poured into a standard pint glass from a 22oz bottle. This beer pours a mostly opaque jet black with deep brown accents. Hot cocoa-colored, thick head. Didn't last long ... reemerges when swirled in the pint, leaving streaks of lacing in the inner rim. The nose is initially not as strong or as robust as I would have expected. Then I realized I hadn't let this bottle adjust to the proper serving temp before pouring. This beer gets better as it warms. The aromas come to life and entice you to take a sip. Quite simply, this beer smells of dark chocolate ... almost as if I were holding a pint full of melted baker's chocolate. Possibly a hint of hop notes in there somewhere, swimming in a sea of rich cocoa. Honestly, one sip of this offering from Rogue and I am instantly in love with this brew. It is, by far, the very best chocolate stout I have ever been honored to sample. Absolutely sinfully good. I am drinking it as I write and am quite literally overwhelmed with dark chocolate heaven ... again, as if I am drinking melted baker's chocolate in a glass, yet without the cloying effect that would be sure to have. . NOT overly sweet, and I do taste the presence of some hops in there to balance the flavor profile. The Rogue guys have outdone themselves with this one. Almost pure chocolate flavor here ... to the point you almost need to remind yourself this is a beer. The mouthfeel is not overly thick, although it does become heavier as the beer warms in my hand. I actually appreciate that this stout doesn't bruise your palate with overly thick, heavy body that leaves you desiring something that more closely resembles liquid. Not only the very best tasting chocolate stout I've ever had, but also clearly the most drinkable. You could drink these all night if given the chance ... and oh how I'd like the chance. The more I drink it, the more I'm grateful that this beer isn't too heavy which would limit how much I could tolerate at a sitting. Drink this one alone at least once, in order to fully appreciate what the Rogue folks have done here. Then, by all means, try it with a rich chocolate dessert, or perhaps some ice cream for a great food pairing. This beer is a MUST DRINK for chocolate lovers and/or stout lovers. You'll likely be both when you've drained your pint. Exceptional beer.


Fortunately, this beer is available in wide distribution as well. Here in Southern Illinois, you can find it at most of the larger beer retailers in the 22oz bomber size. If you're looking to expand your beer horizons, look no further than Rogue Chocolate Stout. A terrific diversion from the norm ...especially if the norm is water-down pale lagers.

i have a theory on corona drinkers....they know nothing about beer, are women, a young teen that cant be in the beer isle yet, or on vacation.

the very phrase "lets get some coronas" makes me wanna puke
lmao... corona is honestly not even that good. its overrated so much. and its not worth the price at all. id rather get some dos exuis or something else if im gettin some mexican beer.

at costco they got a 24 pack of mexican beers, like 2 kinds of doe exuis, tecate, and some other shit, that pack is bomb its only like 20 bucks too.
