BEER: Mountain Goat Surefoot Stout

Check out that label! Rad

Mountain Goat = good beer, as demonstrated again here.

For a starter, one thing that I particularly like is the sheer weight of information on the label. No bullshit, just cool geeky stuff like yeasts and ferment information. Cool. Interesting that it only comes in at 4.9% alcohol too.

The beer itself is lovely, rich, bittersweet stout built dry and warming, with cocoa powder and coffee bitternes matching to some late palate sweetness (though perhaps just a little too much dryness for me), all making for a dry and suitably intense style of rich winter stout. Handmade and tastes like it, this is good stuff, if not quite as more-ish as some of my favourites (such as the Harviestoun).

Thumbs up from me regardless.
