    Has anyone had this Sriracha stout by Rogue? Any good? Weird tasting?

    Very rich both in flavor and mouthfeel. It's not overly spicy but definitely has a constant chili pepper afterburn,

    It's worth trying, but it only comes in 22 oz bottles. I was burnt out on the fullness of the sriracha flavor of it after getting about half-way through and the overkill started to come across as gimmicky rather than well-balanced. I wouldn't drink it during the summer.

    I would say split a bottle with a friend or use the other half for cooking.
    Good review. I agree with your recommendation. It is tough to drink an entire 22oz bottle without getting fatigued taste buds. But it does have good flavor, and I actually have used it for cooking. I found it much better than Rogue's Voodoo maple and bacon beer, which I found totally undrinkable even though maple and bacon are two of my favorite flavors.

    Haven't had this yet. HUGE fan of their Zombie Dust and Arctic Panzer Wolf. Easier to find but still really good are their Yum Yum and Alpha King. Have a bottle of Dark Lord that I'm waiting on to mature. 3 Floyd's has got it going on.

    Hahaha yeah! Who wants a refreshing beer on a hot summer night anyway?

    It outsold the IPA and whatever else they had by double.

    3 Floyd's is the best. I like that it's getting a lot easier to find these days. It used to be impossible to find any of their beers a few years ago. Zombie dust is so damn good.

    Have you had zombie dust on tap? Bottled is delicious, but on tap takes your mouth to a whole new "fuck me, life is great" kind of place.

    No, would love to.
    3 Floyds also makes a great wheat beer for those who don't think wheat should be in beer.

    Had a couple Pipeworks Ninja vs Unicorn's last night. Everything Pipeworks does is awesome. If any of you guys are ever in Chicago, definitely try some Pipeworks.
