I have many times. It is a very good stout but not nearly as big a stout as the name might suggest.

yes many times, it's actually the first stout i had outside of guiness a year or two ago and I haven't looked back. it's very easy to get a hold of up here in MA.

These are my next 3 to pick up (maybe next week): Goose Island Bourbon County 2009, Hoppin Frog BORIS, and The Lost Abbey Serpent Stout.

Great choices, when I was in Worcester last fall I was surprised by how much GIBCS 2009 I saw on the shelves. I bought one bottle to bring home and enjoyed it. The BORIS is great and the BORIS Barrel Aged is even better but its almost $16 a 22oz here so its a rare treat for me. Matt-n-GA shared his bottle of Serpent Stout with me and it was outstanding

That Lagunitas is a favorite in our house.

I use a snifter glass or a pint glass.

I just drink right off the tap.

Here is the latest pick up
The Harpoon was first introduced last year to replace the white ale they had and it was a really good decision on their part
I am trying the Lagunitas for the first time

It is making me happy

I think I read recently that Pete's is going bye-bye. Gambrinus which owns Pete's is discontinuing the brand.

Yep, I would normally buy some before it's all gone, but IMHO Pete's has not been the same for awhile now.

I agree I haven't had Pete's for a while and I realized there is a reason.
Not as good as it used to be.

kaisersozei · 02-18-2011, 11:33 AM

I drink stouts out of a pint glass, unless they're Imperials and then I use a snifter or a wine goblet.

Blindjimme · 02-26-2011, 12:10 PM

That 2011 Old Guardian is mighty tasty. Nice!

spivy · 02-26-2011, 12:18 PM

Picked up a sizer of hopslam. They had the mini kegs too. I might go back and grab one of those too.
