Your go to Winter Stout

Labyrinth is year-round I believe...

 

Green Flash Double Stout

 

A go-to stout? When I can get Celebration and Hibernation? I don't think I understand.

 

I'm usually burned out on stouts do to my heavy summer stout drinking. However, I just had a bottle of Ola Dubh 12, and while not a stout, I could definitely drink this all winter long!

 

Had a Lybyrinth the other day and was very impressed. Snuck it's way into my top 5.

1. Any of the Yeti's
2. Ten Fidy
3. Uinta Labyrinth
4. Founders BS
5. Sante Fe Imperial Java

 

Really good stuff that not many people seem to appreciate

Another one that's good but doesn't really get any notice is moylan's Ryan Sullivan stout.

 

I always forget about this one, also a great go to stout. THanks for the reminder!!!

and adding to my own list, Buried Hatchet.

 

Saint Arnold winter stout or old Rasputin. Of course I'll never turn down any stout that's offered though.

 

Old Rasputin and Narwhal.... and Founders BS....The time of year doesn't matter to me, I'll take a stout any day.

 

Feelin the stout love!! Thought i was the only year round stout drinker for a while there lol

 

No worries man, if they dont have it now, they will, its not that limited. its around til FEBRUARY.

If not, ill ship you some from austin.

 

I don't really have a 'go-to' stout. Unlike the summer that lasts here from April thru September, during which I drink almost exclusively IPAs, IIPAs and pale ales and pick favorites to buy large quantities of, in the winter I drink stouts and porters, but vary it quite a bit. Other than KBS and FBS, I really don't tend to drink the same stout from day to day, preferring to try different ones on each occasion. Thus, I may try 40+ different stouts/porters/strong ales, many times in bombers, without going back to the same one again in the course of a season.

 

LOL... you guys are acting like we actually have SEASONS in Texas. I have favorite stouts that come out in winter, but I still drink everything.

 

Gabriel's had a bunch left last week.

 

I've quantified this thread (in a very scientific manner, no doubt). Please forgive the formatting - the forum doesn't like tables.

I have a one year old 4 pack I'm ready to kill over the next month. So easy to get and really good stuff.. but aging kills some of the hot alcohol.. at least for me.

 

Brooklyn Chocolate Stout, Yeti, Victory Storm King.

 

We dont? i thought it was, summer, hotter than hell, kind of cool, and warm.

 

Summer & Spring... rinse and repeat. LOL.
