Ran home at lunch and peeked into my 6 pack again. It was a Dogfish Head Punkin Ale and Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout and the one I couldn't remember at all was a Dominion Oak Barrel Stout.

What's an Oatmeal Stout?

A great big bottle full of yummyurbino:What's an Oatmeal Stout? -
I got a SA sampler and it's got some interesting brews. Didn't like the honey porter or the scotch ale too much, but the irish red and the brown ale were more than a little tasty. But to answer the question of this thread, most recently I had more than my share of MGD. I'm not a beer snob, but I just don't enjoy most of the top selling domestic beers. MGD, on the other hand...

I understood about every other word of most of that (I'm not a beer guy). I gather, though, that it's basically a stout with some oatmeal in the process, but not an oatmealy stout. That about right?madurofan:

Thats about right Urbi.

Luko ... I agree SA's Honey Porter is about the worst Porter I've ever. JMO.
-
really? wow.
i thought it was pretty good. dont get me wrong, id much rather have an "old leg humper" porter but the honey porter isnt "the worst"
what about it didnt you like? -
I thought it was bitter and not that hoppy bitter that I enjoy. Just a nasty bitter. That is about the only SA I don't like. The Scotch isn't my favorite but its good. Oh and the Cherry Wheat is terrible too.
-
Oh yea btw, last night I drank the Yuengling Porter and B&T and the Dominion Oak Barrel Stout. THe first two were GREAT. The Oak Barrel Stout had good flavor with the hints of vanilla were good but it had a harshness in my throat.
Tonight will be the other 3 from my variety six pack. Starting with the Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout. -
i do think that SA tends to pick a more bitter hops than a floral hops. i didnt think that that one was as "bad bitter" oh well. different tastes i guess.madurofan:I thought it was bitter and not that hoppy bitter that I enjoy.

Yea, definetly different tastes, thats why there are thousands of beers!
... I love the bitterness in the boston lager but something about that Honey porter hits my taste buds wrong. Have you tried Yuengling's Porter yet? Its dark brewed almost guiness black and thick. -
nope havent tried it yet. ill see what i can do.
-
Slacker!
-
I've had more than my share of the ying porter...very good...very good indeed.
-
Luko, another hophead are we?
-
Yessum...speaking of hops, ever imbibe Hopdevil or Hopdog?
-
No I haven't ... Hop Rod once.
-
tonight with These Filthy Hands i had a Dortmunder gold. always a good beer on tap. a good beer with a friend is always better than one without.
-
Last night had a glass of Navan - vanilla infused cognac. Nice, but syrupy. Needs a little water to cut it first. The night before, I had a glass of Goslings Family Reserve.
-
I don't think I'd drink a wine made by geese. I've seen how they do.
-
It's not a wine, Urbi
-
Oh. In that case, I don't think I'd drink a ___________ made by geese.
-
You mean the Goslings? It's Rum made in Bermuda. Their black seal rum is great for mixing, but the family reserve on the rocks or neat is like a scotch.urbino:Oh. In that case, I don't think I'd drink a ___________ made by geese. -
There are geese in Bermuda? Did they emigrate from Canada?
-
They fly down annually to catch some rays and make the year's rum, but then they return to Canada. Tragically, several of their employees are killed every year, along the way.
-
Can't Bermuda get their own birds to do that? They probably pay those Canadian geese toonies on the dollar for what they would have to pay Bermudian fowl.
-
Have you ever seen a Canada Goose? They're the goombahs of the North American bird world. If the Bermudan birds tried to horn in on their liquor racket, they'd end up in leg casts. Or cement galoshes. Or buried under an end zone in Giants Stadium.
Do not mess with the geese, capiche? -
lmao .... ptftw!
