Easy the best beer I've had this year. Starts off with a smooth caramel taste, immediately followed up by a slight bitter, in your face oak, moss finish. It's a "love it or hate it" one, that's for sure. But I LOVE it.

Favourite Whiskies: I'm keeping it with certain brands, otherwise it's too much to mention:
-Ardbeg
-Lagavulin
-Talisker
-Caol Ila
-Laphroaig
-Oban
-Islay Mist

In general very smokey, peaty and earthy Whisky.

It is indeed a fantastic beer, not for the feint hearted!

Ah stones brewing - what Brewdog wish they were!

Both Stones and Brewdog are HYPED in Sweden. My girlfriend is all crazy about the Punk IPA.

I must admit... Stone's got some amazing stuff... only comparable to the Seasonals from Lagunitas or Deschutes (mmmm... Hop in the Dark vs. Sublimely Self Righteous :drool: )... I still have some 2009 and 2010 Stone Russian Imperial Stouts to drink :yummy:
