A sour stout?!?!?

Jolly Pumpkin Madrugada Obscura, Dawn Dawn Stout - This beer was kinda annoying. It produced more head that any beer I've ever seen (see pic). It took ten minute to pour that. The aroma is pure sour goodness. The taste is a mix of malt bitterness and sourness. I don't think that it worked perfectly, but it was certainly interesting and was good. Jolly Pumpkin is an interesting brewery that I'm looking forward to trying more of.

Bonus beer mini-review: Bell's Third Coast Old Ale - I liked this one a lot. Kinda barleywine-y. I'm not sure what the difference between an Old Ale and a Barleywine are. It's kinda frightening. In the last year, I've developed a taste/appreciation for stouts, IPAs, and barleywines...pretty soon I'll be drinking everything!

4.2/5
