too early to get it started. long day ahead, throwing this in the fridge now hoping to get to it this afternoon/evening:

 

I'm finishing my Growler of Lander Stage Driver Stout. A good beer for breakfast.

 

Deschutes Red Chair NWPA. I hope all of the 75 people who have it in their Wants...gets it!

Beer for breakfast, yum!

 

Like!

 

That sandwich looks just as good, if not better, than the brew!

 

Founders Porter to start with.. first time

 

Boulder Brewing A Honey of a Saison. I can't finish it. I haven't said that for a while as I'm a pretty stout beer drinker.

 

I had to clean my palate after the last beer I tried and Lagunitas Sucks did the trick. What a great cheap beer!

 

Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout for breakfast. Hadn't had it in two years and forgot just how good this is.

 

Before heading back to the DFH brewpub:

 

Ok, I am hoping that once I can buckle down and save some beer sending fund, a Verdi Imperial Stout or two, will have to makes its way. I really would like to hear your thoughts on it! I know I do taunt the Italian beers a lot, but for me this one transcends that notion.

Top fermented beer which is subjected to a secondary fermentation in bottle. It is deep dark ebony in color with a cappuccino head. The nose has aromas of chocolate, licorice, coffee grounds and tobacco with alcohol nuances. Its full bodied, long lasting, smooth and dry mouth is followed by a surprisingly hot finish that breaks its initial fullness and makes you crave more! It is suitable for aging.

Dedicating one of our beers to Giuseppe Verdi was a must since our microbrewery is located in Roncole Verdi, the composer’s birth place. When I returned from my first visit to New York City I decided to create a beer that would be superior in elegance, balance and drinkability to all those stout varieties I had overseas. Although the initial recipe has changed, the very first batch matched my vision. Its uniqueness lays in the use of chili pepper which combines very well with the beer’s chocolate aroma. The hot finish also lightens its full bodied mouth by awakening the palate.
Verdi Imperial Stout is the first Italian craft beer to have ever been crowned with a gold medal in its category at an International beer contest. In 2008 it ranked first at The European Beer Star in the Imperial Stout category./span>

Chocolate desserts, fine pastries and soft cheese like Gorgonzola. It is a beer to meditate on.
