Hey I Just tried this wonderful stout at a place called beer bistro in toronto and I absolutely loved it. Its called brewdog paradox isle of arran . I am not able to get it at any store in my province and I was wondering if it is easily found in the USA,Preferably Oakland
My old neighborhood brewery has been expanding, and selling Cold Smoke, a 6.5 % dark Scotch Ale.
"Cold Smoke Scotch Ale earned a silver medal in 2002 and a gold medal in the 2007 NABA brewfest. Formulated with Montana grown 2-row barley, northwest Goldings hops, and lotsa love, this hearty ale drinks very smooth. Not bitter at all and not too sweet either. Novice beer drinkers have been known to take a taste and then say, “WOW! That’s not what I expected… that’s GOOD!â€
I don't drink beer very often, but when I do, I'm straight quality over quantity (and apparently have a penchant for expensive, Belgian trappist brews):

My parents lived in Belgium for 2 years, so they have quite the appreciation for chimay among other Belgian beers. Myself, I just turned 21, so I have a good deal of browsing to do before I can really appreciate the differences in ingredients & whatnot, but I have had chimay a couple times and it's been fantastic. I've also had a few other Belgians, but I'm not positive what their names were
belgian beers are by far my favorite!
anyone ever finds themselves in houston you have to go to the saint arnolds brewery. saturdays are the most popular but the brewery is open everyday of the week.
the brewdog tokyo is amazing!
i got ahold of three bottles of saint arnolds divine reserve 10 recently. i gave one to a friend and im storing the other two for at least 5 years. its supposed to be able to be stored for up to 10 years but i dont think i can wait that long. ill probably open both up next year. hahaha we'll see.
