Had a few different beers, some inspired by conversations last week. Left Hand Wake up Dead... the 22oz bomber, not the nitro 4pk version. Which left me wanting the nitro. It was good but a little more bitter than I recall. Also, to keep the theme, Left Hand Octoberfest. Ehh. It was okay. not really my style of Octoberfest. And finally the Sam Adams Octoberfest. Liked these quite a bit. Would definitely buy again.

Hey Steve, I also had the Wake Up Dead and thought it was a solid Imperial Stout, nothing crazy about it but I would buy it again. Never had the Nitro, also a good IPA from Long Trail, Limbo IPA

The LH-Nitro Milk Stout is pretty fuckin tasty.

I enjoyed one over the weekend and may have just one left (no pun intended).

I agree. I think it enhances the regular version, which I think is very good on it's own. That's why I'm going to try the nitro version of the Wake up Dead. See if it does the same for the Imperial.

One other I picked up that I didn't get to try yet was a Brooklyn Brewery Black Chocolate Stout. Looked like limited release, and it was on sale. Only a 4pk, so figure I'd give it a go. Thought I recalled some conversation on this brewery some time ago. Seems to have some good numbers...

Good numbers, indeed.  I'll have to be on the lookout for it.
