Cant make up my mind on what to have next. I have otmorrow off, so Ill probably be here till late.
I think a Vctory
Storm King Stout is on deck.

Been wating to try this one for a while.
First time? Lucky dog. You are really going to enjoy it.

Wow, talk about smoooooth.

Bottle date is Nov 14th, 2005, and I doubt it was stored properly, but its pretty good. Silky, slick mouthfeel. Pretty hoppy for an RIS. Im not getting much, if any chocolate that Ive seen in alot of reviews...maybe the way it was stored has taken some of the flavor away. Reminds me of Old Rasputin, which aint a bad thing, but its alot smoother.
Im getting an oaky (maybe smokey?) flavor, and a really slight alcohol taste in the finish. Nice stout, but I think I need a fresher sample. Not that its not a REALLY good stout, but I was just expecting more complexity. A really easy drinking RIS though. I could put 2 or 3 away before I knew what hit me.
Now that I think about it, the Nugget Nectar may have roughed up my tastebuds a bit....I have one more Storm King left, and Ill be sure to drink it before anything hoppy.
