Mark Williams is drinking a Rolling Thunder Imperial Stout by Rogue Ales at Studley Tap Room

Kind of a light stout, too heavy on the alcohol creates a lack of balance. A little tart and lacks the sweetness of fruit and barrel.

Mark Williams is drinking a Wolpertinger by Commonwealth Brewing Company at Studley Tap Room

A darker, sweeter malt than hefeweizens, but maintains a banana and pepper aftertaste. That’s a Good Friday.

Mark Williams is drinking a Black Scottish Stout Nitro by Belhaven Brewery at Studley Tap Room

Lovin’ the creamy nitro, and it’s got some amber Scottish malt with some toffee. A little unusual, more like a milk stout.

Mark Williams is drinking a Pom Pom by Trillium Brewing Company at Studley Tap Room

A beer made for ski slopes is great on these first beautiful spring nights. Not overly sweet, it’s got a great balance of vanilla and chocolate. Maybe some toasted marshmallow.

Mark Williams is drinking a Fluffy GBS (2023) by Hardywood Park Craft Brewery at Studley Tap Room

Better than I expected because the sweet marshmallow mellowed the sharp ginger.

Tasting 12/23, and it has aged well. Sharp ginger and smooth bourbon give this a good bite.

Mark Williams is drinking a Prenup Peanut Butter Chocolate Porter by Legal Remedy Brewing at Studley Tap Room

Purchased cans at the brewery. It’s not a peanut butter cup because it’s not sweet or chocolatey, but has a sharp PB flavor in a dark roast.

Mark Williams is drinking a Bourbon Barrel GBS (2015) by Hardywood Park Craft Brewery at Studley Tap Room

Bottle

Christmas 2023, drank the 2015. Still some ginger and an alcohol flavor rather than bourbon. No carb, a little watery. Past its prime, I guess. I always liked that 28 oz bottle though.
