Old Stock Ale, It's out again!
I've liked all the North Coast Beers I've tried so far, and this is no exception. This is a big beer, packing 12.5%. It's kind of a barlywine and old ale hybrid, and a bit on the sweet side. Good beery candy kind of smell, smooth and full feel, sweet finish, no weird aftertastes. Excellent change of pace from some of the other beers I've been drinking. I'm going to grab a few more while they're still around.

I like North Coast, and I hadn't tried this one yet. Its a pilsner, light clean almost sweet. Kind of a nice change of pace from all the heavy beers I have been drinking. Smells like fresh roman lettuce, that is, no real apparent smell other and a kind of fresh clean water smell. That came out being harder to describe and overly wordy than I expected... Its still bubbling pretty good, maintains a small head throughout the glass, yet it doesn't taste overly carbonated. Leaves a bit of a dry malty sweet taste on your tounge. Good drinking beer, kinda spendy though

Old Rasputin, always a good choice. This beer has never disappointed me.
Rich, thick, bitter chocolaty roasted goodness. Just about the perfect imperial stout.
Not much else to say, If you haven’t had this one yet there’s probably something wrong with you.
