Traveling to places, trying things, and writing it down so you Know Before You Go. - Look here for reviews of Gastropubs, brewpubs, taprooms (and any other venue that pops up on my Beeradar) - and their products, with information for the Beer Geek, casual beer fan, and non-beer folks alike.

Beer Of The Day: Monkeys With Arrows
Monkeys With Arrows. Arrowhead Ales (New Lenox) / Metal Monkey (Romeoville) Collaboration.
(http://arrowheadales.com/)
(http://www.metalmonkeybrewing.com/home)
Available in-house, draft and as 4-pack carry-out in cans. Limited Supply.
Double Milk Stout with Coffee.
From the Release Party information: ""Monkeys with Arrows"! A double milk stout with coffee roasted by Metal Monkey themselves. 11% abv."
Draft, served in a snifter. Pours jet black, with a substantial chocolate brown head. Roasted Malt and Dark Roast Coffee dominate. Rich, sweet, hint of smoke from either the malt or coffee. Characteristic milk stout sweetness. Rich mouthfeel. Does not betray its high abv.
Excellent example of a double/imperial stout. Coffee flavors blend very well. I only hope they have a barrel of this aging somewhere; I would stand in line to buy that!
If you like your imperial stouts, go get this while you can. Release is limited, act now! ;-)
My Rating: 4.5/5

Prost!
