Just cracked open a keg of coconut stout.  Not fully gassed yet, but just couldn't wait till tomorrow night.  Really good.  Went with about 1KG toasted coconut in this one and went more full bodied in the stout, ended at 1.020 at 4.5%.  I mean really good! BBQ day tomorrow and smoking a huge rack of ribs so this will be a totally tropical refreshment. Whatcha all drinkin' on this fine night?
In primary:
In secondary: Wine, Melomel
In keg: Teddy Hopper, Coconut stout, 4 Cs, Buzz bomb, Never Sierra, Bock, OD

It is cider weather!  Not hopped cider though, not yet, let it age.  Coco Stout going in well, just missing an umbrella and a slice.

If I like the taste I'll drink it, regardless of who made it! And anyway I wouldn't put Bulmers in the same category as Coors Light, more the same category as Beamish. Mass produced but still completely acceptable.

I'd put it in the same category as Bacardi Breezer and put Beamish in the same category(but slightly higher up) as Guinness, mass produced and bland.
