    But it's brown? That doesn't make sense. What is it?

    TO 0L
    Imperial stout brewed with pineapple and coffee.
    Tropical fruits and dark malts. 10% ABV.

    Thick tan head. Tastes like a sour stout. Has a nice coffee stout smell.

    Damn. That sounds incredible. Hopefully it tasted as good as your description.

    It is very good. The more that it is getting warm the more the flavor is changing (for the good).
    The head reminds me of a mocha latte. :D Lots of carbonation too, the head lasts a long time.
    I may get this one again, it is very different from any other stout I have had.

    Whoa! :eek:
    This bottle has a bit of a kick. Can't taste the alcohol in it at all. Very well hidden. :drunk:

    It is a Danish brewer called TO 0L.
    I had a sour from them (Sur) wasn't as good as this stout.

    had some "left overs" this after noon.
    Allagash - White wheat
    Prairie - Phantasmagoria IPA

    Thinking about cracking open the bottle of Young's Double Choc. stout for dessert. :rolleyes:
    Instead, I've been popping Cadbury mini-eggs by the twos. :anonymous:

    Drinking my last Waldo. :mad:.

    On a side note to you brewers... I picked this up at Lowe's for $30. Drinking water safe! Haven't even pulled it out of the pack yet but looks like decent quality.

    Yes, it was a Monday, but since my cousin and her husband moved out of state, she doesn't come down to Pennsylvania as often as either of us would like...

    Picked up a 6-pack of lager, a 6-pack of 5 assorted lagers (and a Purple Monkey Dishwasher)...

    I still have 4 Yuenglings in the fridge out in the garage, but me and cousin polished off the "Build-your-own" assorted 6-pack in about 2 hours. We huddled up under a blanket in the bed of my Tacoma under the stars and just made it disappear.

    "Open container" my ass...

    We were in the bed of my Tacoma, on my parents' private property. Not only was the truck not on, but the keys weren't even in the ignition. I have a Bud Light beer opener keychain which is on my set of keys, and obviously my cousin and I were using that...

    I rarely have a plan lol. I've had one of those scrunch hoses as back up to the regular ones. It comes in handy when we get a decent day after I've winterized the main hoses. Anyway, the scrunch hose is starting to wear and this seems like a good option to move water to my brew stand too.
