That's what I was drinking last night as well! Friggin' delicious. Just fantastic, an amped up, more complex version of Old Viscosity which I thought was delicious in its own right.Derek wrote:Older Viscosity.
Wow.
I'm not a style Nazi, but I wouldn't call this an Imperial Stout (even less so than Grand River's Russian Gun)... but this is ONE HELL OF AN OLD ALE!

Maine Beer Company Peeper Ale.
Was recently in Maine and the Maine Beer Company was the big revelation for me. I had Allagash, Geary's, Shipyard....all were fine but none were something I'd go out of my way for, but I was very impressed with what I've had from this brewery, specifically the Zoe and Peeper. I was kicking myself that I didn't buy more but then I found more in Burlington, VT on my way home so I stocked up. Next time I will definitely hit the brewery itself.
