Has anyone here tried Brooklyn Brewery's Black Chocolate Stout?

I was at the liquor store last night and thought a good, sturdy beer would make a good stocking stuffer for my son.

Any thoughts, comments or warnings? It's only a four pack and I have a few more shopping days before Christmas.

I have never had it but the reviews for it are very good.

I say go for it.

I admit that my eyes glazed when I was perusing the shelves upon shelves of "craft" beers. When will the seemingly endless stream of bizarre and cutesy names dry up? I went with something close to my place of birth – Manhattan.

As I see it, he got me a (as in one, solo, solitary, all alone and lonely) bottle of Left Hand Brewing Co.'s Milk Stout Nitro. I liked it. Being the Good Dad that I am, I figured that he deserves more than one, whether he likes it or not.

Hell, he can always cook bratwurst in it.

I have. Very good beer. I like the packaging, too.

Okay, I need to buy some bourbon to make a pie for Christmas. Honestly, I'm old school and my plan was to just buy some Jim Beam. I know that might not cut it for some of the palates around here, so I'd like to get some opinions. I am going to use a shot or two for the pie I make, but what should I get? I do want to enjoy it after the pies are made...

 

[dshans]

Thanks pkt and gk. I'll declare my Christmas shopping officially done. Over. Kaput. Todo. [And for the Bogslogger] Rinneadh.

Drink well. Laugh well. Enjoy well. Appreciate fully.

Personally, I'm a big fan of Maker's Mark.

Like both but the Hefe was excellent.

How much do you want to spend and what do you like in a bourbon?

Their Point the Way IPA is ok but their Wolf Among Weed DIPA is very good IMO.

Also started to brew my own beer. Have a Oktoberfest style ready to be bottled on Christmas. I am going to make a hobby of it and hopefully get decent enough to make some exotic tasty drinks. We'll see how it goes.
