I had the chance to move the site to 1kbeers.com, and I thought that was probably better than http://beer.kozlen.com. Find me and my reviews there now....
729. Green Bay Brewing – Hinterland Luna Coffee Stout
My birthday was yesterday and we went out for some Mexican food for dinner. I didn’t really get a chance to try a good beer, so tonight I thought I’d pull one out of the beer fridge. I don’t remember exactly where I got this beer. I thought maybe it was one of the beers my sister brought me back from her trip to Asheville, North Carolina last year but since it’s from Wisconsin I think I may have gotten it...
714. 3 Floyds Brewing Co. – Speed Ball Coffee Stout
We’re on our way up to the Michigan coast for a long weekend, and stopped at 3 Floyds Brewpub for lunch. I’ve already had the War Mullet and Zombie Dust, and wanted a small beer for dessert. After looking at the extensive list of beers, this one fit the bill perfectly, especially since I still had an hour and a half of driving to go. It was labled as a coffee stout, and was served as a half pint. Location: On tap and...
680. New Glarus – Unplugged Cherry Stout
We’ve got our home on the market, and we had an open house this morning. This afternoon has been pretty relaxing, catching up on several beer reviews. After editing a few, I had a craving for one. So as I sit here during halftime of the Mizzou basketball game, I went out to the garage to grab a beer. I forgot to mention that the beer fridge is now gone, in storage while we move. So, all the beer is boxed up in the cold garage...
678. Samuel Adams – Thirteenth Hour Belgian Style Stout
I finished the Goose Island Night Stalker and was feeling pretty good. So, I thought I’d go out to the beer fridge and find another big Stout to finish off the night. It’s been that kind of week, and I think I deserve it. And, since were moving soon, I thought I’d get rid of some of the bigger bottles out of the beer fridge. I picked up this beer as part of a special three pack at Sam’s Club right before...
624. Bell’s Brewery – Kalamazoo Stout
My son’s 9th birthday party was last night, and he had three of his friends spend the night. They were up late, so I’m a bit groggy today. We’re cleaning up before the family party tonight, and I took a break and grabbed this out of beer fridge. As I sit here, it’s beginning to flurry outside. I don’t remember where or when I got this bottle, as it may have been on a trip up to Kalamazoo a while ago. The...
614. Wrecking Bar Brewpub – Jemmy Dean Breakfast Stout
Today is my second day in Atlanta, and my friend Joe and I spent most of the day working on his new house. So, as a reward for helping him, he’s promised to take me to a few nice bars and microbreweries tonight. Our first stop is the Wrecking Bar Brewpub. They had some nice sounding brews on the menu, but this seemed to be one of their specialties and it came recommended by Joe. The menu said it contained a cold-pressed Java...
580. Left Hand Brewing – Milk Stout Nitro
Our usual pizza and craft beer place – Flinger’s Pizza Pub – closed down a few weeks ago and we were craving pizza and beer. We’d been told to try this place out – Firehouse Pizza. They had a decent beer list and a good variety of pizzas. The pizza sauce was pretty sweet, and while it wasn’t bad, it wasn’t our favorite pizza. This was the only beer they had on tap I hadn’t added to the...
577. Broadway Brewery – Milk Stout
I’ve been to this brewery a couple times on previous visits to Columbia, Missouri, and had decent experiences with their Pale Ale and their Nut Brown Ale. However, It’s been a couple years since I been back here and I wasn’t too impressed with the barley wine I just had. The milk stout looked interesting and was served on a nitro tap, although, I found out from the bartender that it was just a tap and not actually...
572. Highland Brewing Co. – Black Mocha Stout
This beer was sent to me by my sister’s friend several months ago. Unfortunately, there was no date on the bottle and I’ve lost track of when my sister gave it to me. The bottle says, “Highland’s most robust beer, having a very malty body with a large, roasted chocolate flavor, all achieved solely through the use of special roasted barley grains. It is black in color with a very clean finish and a moderate hop...
528. Samuel Adams – Merry Mischief Gingerbread Stout
I’ve been home all day today with the kids, and it’s been great having the day off work. In fact, at lunch, I had 8-Bit Pale Ale from Tallgrass. Tonight, I saw this beer in the fridge, which was part of a special holiday 4 pack of Sam Adams beers at Sam’s Club. Since I knew it had spices in it, I knew I couldn’t let it sit in the fridge until next Christmas, so I thought I’d have it tonight. Location:...
507. The Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery – Milk Stout
We’ve been enjoying the holidays by working around the house, doing a little bit of cleaning, but mostly enjoying some of our new toys and tech. After having the Highland Kashmir IPA, and noticing the date on it was from 2/22/11, I figured I’d better check some of the other beers given to me by my sister’s friend. I grabbed this one and noticed the bottle was marked with a 7/11 date, and figured I’d better...
