Wow. Mephistopheles Stout ($) from Avery Brewing clocks in at a whopping 16.03% alcohol. If that's not reason enough to try it, how about a stout with characteristics of a fine port or a scotch whiskey. There is a big, bitter mouthfeel, with a tastes of maple sugar and coffee. It's very malty with obvious alcohol.
This beer has all the qualities of a good lay-down, and I look forward to trying it again in a few years.
Serve in a brandy snifter at room temperature.
