Stone 12yr anniversary bitter chocolate oatmeal stout

[Darrell]

1st let me say, damn this is the best chocolate stout I've ever had. It is like drinking bakers chocolate with hops, the finish is long and bitter like a chocolate bar, it's creamy, smooth, and sweet. Everything about this beer is phenomenal.

[SIZE=3]Thanks for the tip Darrell. I love the product that comes out of Stone Brewery, and I also love Stout. Looks like I need to take a trip over to BevMo to see if they have it in stock[/SIZE]

That's where I got mine, bro. I love the Stone Imperial Stout. Too bad it's a seasonal beer.

I have got to get one of these, looks like a run to the liquor store tomorrow. We get some Stone all the way out here in MD... hope that's on the list!

That sounds awesome, the logo rocks too. I'll have to see if I can find some.

I'd send you some bro, but it would cost you an arm and a leg to ship.

Sounds pretty good!

Alright, halfway there, found it listed online in a MD store.. but it'll cost me 2 gallons of gas and a $5 toll to buy a $6.29 bottle of beer.... seems reasonable

Nah, I just need to find a really long hose and a funnel. Could be the first nation wide beer bong!

Based on your recommendation, I had some tonight at dinner at the Capital Ale House in Richmond-- excellent on tap!

Yup, sure did. Not from that store though. There's a really good beer shop about 5 mi from home that carries a very extensive selection of microbrews, craft brews, etc. Lots of the 'numbered bottle' types of beer. They had a few a cases when I dropped in this afternoon. Came home with some of the Stone beer, and a six pack each of Post Road, Buffalo Bill's, Saranac, and Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale. They were out of the Weyerbacher pumpkin, and I passed on the Dogfish Head and Jacks. All in all, a good beer run, thanks for the inspiration!

My pleasure.

Any idea the shelf life on brews such as Stone?
