Dark Island from the same brewery is great, too.
Pliny the Elder is a very tasty beer.
Any fans of Guinness Foreign Extra Stout in here? The only bar I know of that stocked it has stopped selling it 
Popular in Nigeria, it’s stronger (about 7%) and the consistency is somewhere between Guinness and Newcastle Brown Ale. Gives you power, apparently.
Skull Splitter Scotch Ale, and Mad Fox Abbaye des Chutes are two of the best I’ve had.

Where is there?
Flying Dog’s Mint Chocolate Stout. Think Andes candies.
I was poured the last glass at my friend’s bar, and I’ve been obsessing over it ever since.
Beer Heaven!

Clown Shoes Undead Party Crasher Stout.
i just had this at lunch today, okay 2 of them - at 9% that may not have been a great idea, but it is the best stout that I have had in a long time~
This is appropriate for today:
200 years ago today, one of history’s most bizarre disasters befell London when a 15-foot wave of beer flooded an entire neighborhood and left eight people dead.
The Horse Shoe Brewery on Tottenham Court Road in London boasted a massive 22-foot-tall vat that held some 160,000 gallons of dark porter. On October 17, 1814, one of the metal hoops meant to secure it snapped, and the wooden vat succumbed to the immense pressure of all that fermenting brew. The gushing beer smashed open the brewery’s other vats, resulting in a raging sea of beer that burst forth from the building.
Over one million liters of beer flooded out onto the road and raced through the St. Giles neighborhood. The area was crammed with crowded slums, and many inhabitants couldn’t escape in time. According to The Independent, “Hannah Banfield, a little girl, was taking tea with her mother, Mary, at their house in New Street when the deluge hit. Both were swept away in the current, and perished.” Others who were gathered in a cellar for a wake were caught by surprise by the flood and drowned in beer. A wall of a nearby pub crumbled and crushed a 14-year-old girl who was standing next to it. In total, eight people perished in the accident.
Unsubstantiated rumors persist that rowdy locals brought pots and pans to the river of beer in an attempt to round up free drinks. In reality though, the citizens of St. Giles were lauded in the press for their help with the rescue efforts, keeping quiet in the aftermath in order to help listen for the screams of their trapped neighbors.
