I look forward to it every year. The label is just so christmasy. I like it, but I'd be happy if I could get their stout on a regular basis.


Yeah, I love their stout, too. It's pretty underrated.

They have a coffee stout in their winter mixed 12 pack that is awesome. I wish they would sell that on it's own.
It's such a fine line between stupid and clever.

Man, I love well made coffee stouts, thats for sure. My only stupid issue is I can't seem to drink them at night as they keep me up later than I want to be. My wimpy, high-strung nervous system.....

I am noticing as I age I am getting the same way with the after 4pm caffeinated beverages.  However I have yet to find the coffee stout, I have been looking for it since I saw this post.

only in the Snow Pack, unless your local bar happens to get one off kegs of SN.

Celebration was good this year, but i just wasn't as in to it this year as i have been in the past.

Decaf beans, Rob! That's my workaround.  :)

;D Yeah, they're not all created equal. In a pinch I've gotten good results from Starbucks decaf Sumatra beans.

Ya know what, I don't think coffee stout is the star of that Snow Pack. The maple scotch is mighty fine too, but I'm digging that Cascade single hop IPA. Cascade might be boring to a lot of people, but dang dang it's tasty
