Aroma is to stout style with a semi sweet chocolate hit. Taste is chocolate with bittering hops. A bit metallic on the mid pallet. Lingering bitter finish.
I like it. Typical SN bitterness. Lay some down and they will be awesome with time.

whenever your weekend starts, I hope you can lift a glass and relax (Stone IPA in my case).

Just got back from Costco where they had both Deschutes Black Porter and Gordon Biersch Mix (Czeq Pils, Bock, Winter Bock, and Marzen) cases for 20 bucks. That's a price that is unheard of these days. Make you wonder if Costco bought out old stock but I guess I'll find out tonight.
Happy Holidays!

Hop_soup

Fantastic beer. Can't wait to get another. From their description:
Hop Soup - (9.0% a.b.v)
By Head Brewers Rodger Davis’s accounts, this is the hoppiest beer he has ever brewed. A medley of the biggest Pacific Northwest hops are packed in with a distinct emphasis on additions for aroma. Backed by a sturdy malt base, it runs wild with hop flavor. As we head into the holiday season, we will be inroducing a new, strong ale every other week as part of our ‘Feats of Strength’ holiday series, all leading up to the celebration of Festivus on December 23rd, and the release of the 2009 Festivus “MiracALE”
