Also in the 6er is a couple Schlafly Coffee Stouts that I haven't tried yet.

And of course Miller High Life Tallboys for the crew.

Red-X is one of my favorite places on Earth.

I'm good for 3 or 4 visits a week. Today I walked in wearing my Brandon Flowers jersey to Fleetwood Mac's - Dreams playing over the intercom, hi-5in' and head-nodding dudes in the lottery line. Place just brings me joy.

Just opened up Lindeman's Cuvee Rene Gueuze.

Fantastic. A whole lot drier than I expected.

How much experience with Guezues do you have? I like Cuvee Rene --it's definitely Lindemann's best beer --but if you that that is fantastic, then I'd love to see how much you'd like Cantillon Classic Guezue or 3 Fontienen Oude Guezue.

Hanssens Oude Guezue, Cantillon Classic Guezue, 3 Fontienen Oude Guezue. Next time you're in KC, look for those. The Cantillon earned the highest review score I've ever given a beer.

I'll keep an eye out.

Moving on to S/N's 30th Reserve. Combination of their PA Celebration and barleywine(oak aged). Good. The oak is pretty well hidden. Not noticeable at all, maybe slightly in the finish. The celebration is the most noticeable flavor. Really wanted to try their Ken and Fritz ale, but never could find a bottle.

Picked up a 4 of Tank 7 and a 4 of Dark Truth while in KC. Really enjoying both, but I loooove the Dark Truth. Just a great sipping stout.

Enjoying my first dark truth as I enjoy the game and simmer a marinara sauce. This is quite nice for a Domestic Stout.

It was my favorite Boulevard Stout until I tried an aged Smokestack Imperial Stout.

This post is strange to me. America is, by far, the best country when it comes to Imperial Stouts. It's also strange in a different way to associate Dark Truth with its American brethren when it has a Belgian yeast strain; Dark Truth's closest counterpart is De Struise's Black Albert.

I defer to your experience and take the challenge to taste test. Its a bad way to live but I will sacrifice and do my research.

I'm obviously in the minority here, but I found Dark Truth to be average, at best. Probably didn't help that I drank it around the same time I had drank Darkness, Dark Lord, Parabola, and Speedway - it just can't compete with those (for me)...
