On a suggestion from our local beer expert @omnicolor i decided to try a bourbon barrel - aged stout for my final day.
My first impression was it was expensive for beer. I could have gotten a case of my normal swill for what i paid for this 4 pack. With that being said i headed out of the store and when i got home i looked it over a bit and found that it was 11% alcohol so that explains a bit. POP goes the top and i give it a wiff. Smells pretty good, maybe in a wierd way it almost has a slight chocolate smell. So i tip it back and what do you know. it is pretty good. It has almost a charcoal, vanilla mix taste i guess i would say. The surprising part was that it had a little of the whiskey burn going down. Nothing to the effect of taking a shot of whiskey but it is deffinatly there. I have never had this kind of beer before so i was pretty excited by this. I really wish i would have had a nice medium rare steak to eat while drinking this. I believe it would have really put it over the top. I downed all 4 while working on the race car in pretty short order and i must say i got a bit of a buzz out of the deal to boot.
Hell yes, BUT i would need a nice hearty mans man style dinner to go with it.

Today my final nomination is @phoebz . She is a newbie i ran across the other day from the land down under and she is now in Canada. Seems to be an interesting person to follow as she is fun loving and a bit nutty and is the only person i have ever heard of that actually accepted a ride from a stranger in New York City and lived to tell about it. Again, don't ever do that again.
