I just finished bottling a batch of Russian Stout that will be ready in
about 5 weeks - I don't expect that I knock back two or three after a hot
afternoon of mowing the lawn. But I will fill my 24 oz. frozen mug with
Coors Light and jump in the pool. That's refreshing!!
The stout will be more for sipping and a slower enjoyment and for sharing
with friends.. the same can be said for Mint Juleps and neat scotch, for
that matter.
I just enjoy them all in different settings.
Stella Artois and "1694" seem to be good sellers in the UK and a more
"american" taste. IMO
for what it's worth - just wasting the morning waiting until it's beer
thirty.
