Down & Out with Stouts

On Wednesday, I went to a stout tasting at Lincolnwood Liquours with Tara, Dave, Bachman and Puccini. This liquor store is a hidden little gem that Tara & Dave found over Thanksgiving weekend - apparently, it opened recently and they host wine & beer tastings just about every week. Fun!

Wednesday's tasting comprised of 12 different stouts - some that I'd had before and some new finds. It was a great spread!



Some of my favorite new stouts of the evening were - Santa's Little Helper, Southern Tier's Oat Stout and Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout. Can't wait to crack these open over the holidays!


Some other beers that we didn't try on Wednesday, but that I had to pick up included: a double stout and a banana bread beer, along with a bottle of Dragon's Milk (a flavor that I tried for the first time at Dark Lord Day.)


I'm looking forward to going back to Lincolnwood Liquors sometime very soon!
