April 14, 2006 - Porter and Stout

OK, so it's September and I'm FINALLY updating the blog! A little Washington State Merlot is aiding me in my writings and will hopefully help me through 3 updates.

So apparently I can't find the notes for the Porter and Stout tasting, which means that instead of the usual comprehensive wrap up, I'll just say this: porters and stouts are yummy. Some are hoppy or bitter, some taste like coffee, one I think even tasted like coconut. Some are balanced, some are not, and most of them go well with cheddars. I can say this, they are all dark brown/black in color, great hearty winter beers, and like so many other craft beers in this and other countries, they make me and other imbibers happy.

Hopefully I will have more details to add once I consult with Joe Dougherty, but until then...go out and experiment and buy some yummy porters and stouts.

Peas out.
