      Almost at Imperial ABV levels then. Most of the Scandi brewers have stouts and impy stouts that would fit the bill. Do you have any spesialist stores near you that have websites?

      My fave boozy, Imperial Stout at the mo is by Boulevard Brewery, and comes from their Smokestack Series. Nøgne do a good one as well.

        I've had the Stingo and the Imperial. very nice indeed - and definitely not made by a global conglomerate!

                I'll be interested to hear how those two limited editions from Fullers turn out.. Great haul!

                    Great news! We'll have a further chat about that, I'll pm  you \o/

                    Meanwhile all this talk of Stout meant I had to pick some up, and lo and behold a new impy from one og my fave Norwegian brewers. These guys have a micro brewery with associated bar just outside of the centre og Oslo. This is 9% abv and matured in Bourbon casks. Vanilla and oak over a malty, brown sugar base. Great stuff.

                      More "almost there" from Ægir. A weakish stout at 6%, aged in Irish whiskey casks. Lots of peat and smoke, over over a thin, acidic base. Meh.

                        A bit of an image dump of beers I've been enjoying over the last bit. I had that fullers imperial stout as well, but apparently I didn't get a photo. It was pretty good. My favorite was definitely the four winds pequeno cabos….a tequila barrel aged Berliner weisse that was just about perfect on a warm summers day

                            Kicked off college football last night with a few good beers!

                            Jester King Hibernal Dichotomous, cellared for I think about 9 months.
                            Delicious, much more mellow than it was initially in January.

                            Oskar Blues Ten Fidy. Never had anything from this brewery before, this one didn't disappoint.
                            Luckily I've got three more cans to enjoy.  😘

                              Ten Fidy… Need to re-visit... I had this back when I wasn't that much into cans... I know: pretty dumb... I love cans now  🙂

                                I think that's possibly why I had slept on Oskar Blues for so long, that and just not really knowing what they're about.
                                Nothing wrong with cans at all, lots of the good local Austin breweries distribute cans solely.

                                    I will never accept cans, I'm afraid. Good beer deserves a bottle. Plus, I swear I can taste a difference.

                                            Any of you ladies or gents fill me in about the Malheur brand? If it's worth trying and if so which versions are the best….
