Quote HistoryQuoted: How about that... I don't venture over to the foreign beer side often since there's so much domestic to try but I'll stop by my store and check if they have it. I know they carry Spencer. It's an international store. They have a lot to chose from.  https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/102941/jungle_jim_s_eastgate_beer_jpg-2258290.JPG I have spent a decent amount of money at JJ when I visit family between beer and food.

Quote HistoryNot sure if that’s the updated version to this (?), but the best damn Porter I’ve ever drank was this coconut porter in Hawaii by Maui Brewing about 10 years ago. It even had tiny coconut shavings in it. Unfortunately my wife surprised me for Christmas the next year by having some shipped to Florida and it was skunky AF and entirely undrinkable after the 12 hr journey  Attached File |

High Tower, Rayland, Ohio (where the fuck is that?) - The Deep Dark Stout 14% (Holy Shit I'm already lit!) - Imperial Stout,
Rich flavor! Smooth with hoppy finish (I hate hopps but its tolerable ). Tastes like there is a shot of whiskey in this. Good thing I got it on a flight and not a full glass. I can drink it but probably wouldnt order it again unless it's in a shot glass. |

Okay, I had to pick another to fill up the flight. Ran out of stouts and porters.
Half Door Raspberry Cream Ale, San Diego, Commiefornia. A little bit of a raspberry nose, slight raspberry flavor. Kind of smooth. I can take it or leave it. |

If you’re ever in the Pacific Northwest Iron Horse brewery in Ellensburg WA has a brew called Quilters Irish Death.
Low IBU, below 20 if I remember right and about 8.5% alcohol. It’s quite good if you like a stout. |

My on call just ended and, after this week, I need a good beer.
I've got a couple singles floating around in my fridge that have been there a while so this one from a local brewery seems topical... Dead Low Crazy Yvan Russian Imperial Stout (I drank the other 3 in the 4 pack a while ago. It's good. )

One I also really like, but I'm not sure is technically a stout, is Streetside Brewery's Return Of The Mac. It's blonde, has a very stout-y flavor, but only clocks in at 5.5%. They call it a "blonde ale". |
