Chris, just want to thank for teaching me so much about beer. I used to drink a stout or Imperial stout very cold as I thought all beer should be drank ice cold. Yesterday for the first time I drank a Stone Imperial stout at the proper temperature and it was an pallette expanding experience. Much more flavor and you could really taste the chocalate and coffeee. Once again thanks,
Thanks Kevin!
