    I like stouts, and not all are Imperial Stouts and I’m intimidated adding them to the Imperial and Imperial Pastry Stout Threads,
    So here’s a thread in honor of regular, ordinary, non-Imperial stouts.

    the first is Guinness NA, which a good NA option

    Drekker VIP (Very Important Pistachio) Milk Stout, 6.6% ABV. I rated this 4.04 yesterday.

    You're going to need (2026) appended to the thread title. Do that by reporting your first post and asking for a thread name change.

    You may also want to define which stout styles are included or excluded.

    Looks like he just lopped off Imperial & Imperial Stupid Pastryface Stouts from the far end and left everything else behind as 'regular, ordinary, non-Imperial stouts'.

    I thought this thread was going to be about the American Stout.
    I thought wrong.

    Imperial and Imperial Pastry cut off everything else.
    Why just American?

    Compiling a list. Thanks for all the suggestions. I love my stouts. I enjoy imperials, too, but love to have the lower abv stouts. Not many made in Texas. Mostly super sweet, high abv imperials

    Hey, didn’t know this thread existed. I have lots of regular stouts to share but normally didn’t have a place to share them.
    In the infamous words of Arnie: I’ll be back.

    Indoor Stout from Matchless, the other brewery in Tumwater.

    Definitely a cozy Stout and easy to sip. Rather bitter with the burnt malt taste. Light and sudsy on the tongue. Aroma of dark roasted grain with a whiff of pine. Slightly sweet to start with a burnt malt finish. More than enough bitterness to go with the sugar, but quite interesting. Long dark aftertaste with some hoppy green notes.
