    What an embarrassment of flavors, It hits on almost every front... chocolate, coffee, mild burnt caramel, it washes down like liquid velvet.

    Which ones? I'd like to see if I can get my hands on them.

    Had this fresh on tap most recently at Parker's Pies on a visit to HF. The maple was incredible. Definitely a top 10 in my books. Not top 10 out of the bottle, but still get the maple.

    Never heard of it, but sounds amazing! On the list.

    Definitely a big fan of Pirate Bomb. Especially when it is fresh. Still really good after a few years, but nothing like a fresh one.

    LOL just picked up a 4-pack tonight. Also grabbed a 4-pack of Breakfast stout. Last one on the shelves at the liquor store near me.

    My original intention was to find some other mega-whales worth chasing, but also wanted to leverage the experience of the BA community to find some stouts (BA or non) that I could enjoy on a regular basis. Didn't realize there were so many stout lovers out there. ROCK ON! btw Backyard was underrated and I could drink BCBS, KBS, and Bomb all year round.

    I think they did, but for employees only. Released to the public last year(?) in growlers at select bars.

    Never tried it. Couldn't help but notice the Warriors logo "Best on the radar team in 2017". I'm convinced that Russell will head to Cleveland just to piss people off.

    Takes a little bit to get, but definitely won't break the bank. Good suggestion!

    I was interested to see if these were worth going for. Had a few of the BA Mex Cake variants from the past few years and didn't love them. Also had some variants from Voodoo and same response. Seems like the variants that are consistently tasty include Bourbon County and Speedway. Keep the ideas coming!

    Thanks @kwakwhore ! Just popped a Birthday Bomb! and it is a tasty little morsel. At room temp and get all the vanilla, coffee, and cocoa with a hint of pepper on the finish. Great suggestion!

    Great list! Always have debates between Good Morning and Mornin' Delight (I like MD better). Vanilla Rye is drinking amazing and would love to try it next to OG Vanilla. Luscious may be one of the best stouts out of a can I have ever tried. The rest seem to be fan favorites. A+.

    It tasted similar to Night and Day to me. I didn't love it, but would definitely drink it again if sharing with friends who have not tried it before.
