Special drinking edition...

This is a special post in reply to a request from Zog to delve into the particulars of a certain visit to a certain establishment that sells beverages of a certain style.*

Brewery: Black Sheep Brewery
Beer: Riggwelter Yorkshire Ale
Appearance: Dark like the color of soda, but without the bubbles.
Thoughts: Very smooth and drinkable. It reminds me of an O'Hara's Celtic Stout quite a bit because of the smoothness. Definitely something I could sit back and relax with. I highly recommend it. Just to get all of my plugs in: I would also recommend Black Sheep's, Black Sheep Ale . It is not as strong, but still one of the beers I have enjoyed the most overall. And one more: Gray's Brewing Companies ' Oatmeal Stout. As they put it: "Big. Black. Bold." Yes. Yes it is, and quite good at that.

Zog, if you can find any of the beers mentioned above, try them. It will most definitely not be a waste of money. If you have questions leave them in the comments.

*This a post about one of the two beers I purchased at Binny's while near Chicago. I have another one, but just noticed it is an Imperial Stout and not a regular Stout. Instead of bashing the Imperial, something I know I won't like, I will let it go and drink it later.
