Ten FIDY vs. Breakfast Stout

Ten Fidy all the way

 

Baker's chocolate is dark, dry, less sweet, and slightly bitter. None of those qualities are in Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate. Stuff is like straight dutch milk chocolate.

 

I had both for the first time this year and thoroughly enjoyed each one. I agree that both have totally different flavor profiles. I'd probably find myself drinking ten fidy late night, while I enjoy FBS with/as breakfast on the weekends or mid-day. Price definitely comes into play for me, so I drink FBS more frequently. It's around $10-11 around me while Ten Fidy is $15.99.

 

I enjoy the FBS. It's not my favorite thing ever, as I tend to prefer the more assertive nature of an imperial stout. Damn good beer though. I should be getting my first taste of Ten Fidy next weekend, and I can't wait.

 

Not 2012

Thin, artificial, mess

 

Agree with both being different, obviuosly. Slightly leaning towards FBS because I'm a coffee lover. But both great!!!

 

Ten Fidy is far superior IMHO. FBS is a WAAAAAAAAY over rated stout! It's certainly a good beer... but a 99? WTF? No depth of flavor in either the nose or the taste. It's all black coffee! That's it! It's a one note guitar solo!
