40 Beers to Celebrate 40 Years! Day Thirteen


Beer: Hockley
Type: Stout
Region: Ontario
Rating: Novice/Intermediate

Hockley Stout, traditional Irish Stout beer. First introduced to me by my cousin Geoff, this is an incredibly delicious beverage that goes with pretty much anything, and just as good on its own.

This craft beer out of Orangeville, ON, 'pours like liquid midnight.". It has a dark molasses colour, a nice, coffee-hued frothy head that holds it own, and a slight burnt chocolate scent.

It's a very smooth, if slightly bitter beer that goes down nice and easy. At 4.2% alc, it will surprise you at how light it tastes.

Go ahead and pour yourself some liquid midnight - you deserve it!

I think that drinking all those different beers is making you look younger. You don't look a day over 2!!! Congrats. Maybe I'll try it.
