Well, I like Guinness and I like Coffee so I figured that this would be wonderful. Two of my favorite beverages combined! How can that be a bad thing?

Turns out two great beverages don’t make a super great beverage. It’s drinkable but I won’t be buying more.

While there are a few coffee beers that I enjoy, nearly all of them just don't do it for me for one reason or another. Usually, they are too sweet (yuck) or so dominated by coffee that I wonder why I didn't just dump a shot of cheap vodka or whiskey into a cup of coffee.

Guinness is so roasty that I shudder to think what they did to it to distinguish that product from the regular can.

I typically enjoy coffee stouts...but we are getting into the time of year where stouts find their way into my glass much less frequently.

^^A couple more shots from Big Top.^^ I also split a Pensacola Bushwhacker Double Milk Stout with my son. I honestly did not detect a huge difference between the two stouts (Okefenokee was the other). Both were good, though.

Hadn’t played indoor shuffleboard since descending into The Cave at Mount Washington Resort a handful of winters ago. I lost, which was probably a good thing on Mother’s Day.

Down to the last 2 bottles of this one. A dessert beer, no doubt. Just like a Ghiardelli chocolate square with raspberry filling. Pretty thick, with a lot of sediment. Looks like someone spray painted the bottom of the bottle black.
