Stopped at Binnys today to see if the new Goose Island had been released yet. Nope...but I couldn't leave empty handed.

First time I've seen the Mephistopheles, Nate, I am psyched....tonight when I get home from hockey! :-)
[Reply]

It's a big beer that's for sure. You'll enjoy it,, great stout!
[Reply]

Picked up:
Stone Ruination
Arrogant Bastard
Dundee Festive Ale
Anderson Valley Boont Ale
:-)

Oh and a Molson Canadian :-)
[Reply]

Fresh Ruination is very good. An expensive double ipa, but one of my favorites from Stone:-)
[Reply]

$6 for the big bottle, didn't figure it to be too expensive. :-)
[Reply]

I've paid around $17 for a six pack. I guess buying a bomber isn't too bad.
[Reply]

The 6 packs are $11.99 (if I remember correctly), but being a first timer, I figured to start with the single bottle. :-)
[Reply]

16.8% ABV, my beer guy at Binnys dared me to drink two in a half hour. :-)
[Reply]

That's a great price for a 6er.
[Reply]

Two of those in a half hour would knock anyone down:-)
[Reply]

Challenge accepted :-)

I've done 2 Mephistopheles in a row...it was something f*cking awesome x2 :-)

They were 2007's too :-)

First aged stout I've had the chance to sample, MUCH better than a fresh bottle.

2x 120 Minute IPA's was worse :-)
[Reply]

I'm sure you were feelin' good:-)
[Reply]

Oh yeah, That night was a bit of a blur. Especially with the Arrogant Bastard bomber that followed. I'm pretty sure I woke up on the floor somewhere.


It was worth it. :-)
[Reply]

I'm sure your liver would say otherwise:-)
[Reply]

It's busy with the half of bottle of Vodka I just introduced it to :-)

Maybe later it'll voice it's disapproval of my actions :-)

Have you tried Ipswich Oatmeal Stout? They are one of my local favorites brewery and this is a great offering from them.
