HAd a Founders yesterday. Quite good and creamy. It was a stout and rates batter than NOLA stout

Founder's stouts vs NOLA stouts is like Cajuns baseball vs Southern baseball.

Agreed Founders is good stuff. Also like the Bells porter and stouts.
And for a pretty strange but delicious porter, Horny Goat Chocolate Peanut Butter Porter. I was skeptical at first, but I pick some up at NuNus whenever I get a chance.

Someone had to already be drunk when that brew combo (idea)was concocted

Especially to go and figure out which of the goats was horny enough to mix into the brew.

timing I guess!!!

It is interesting that we had so few beers in the past, and the difference in those beers wasn't that much (taste wise). But different people preferred different ones. They drank "their brand", whether by taste or price (or both). But now, as much as I like the new selections, some of my buddies and me laugh at the obsession with trying out and conversing about the flavor a day beer products. One guy I know can't tell you a beer he doesn't "love", and he races to be the first to sample the latest name pumped out by the "beer complex". As much as I'm enjoying this "new beer every day" phase, I'm also not failing to see the humor in the beer complex messing with everyone - with the names - and the next "flavor" of the day. It's about equivalent to women and candle scents. I guess we'll eventually get back to sticking with what we really like, a single dependable beer flavor... but it may not end until ...
