Order 2 bottles of St. Bernardus ABT 12. This better be worth it Carl.

Don't drink them both at the same time . . .

Why not?

If they're single sized bottles disregard my warning. If they're bombers I'd get a pretty good buzz off of two 10% ABV bottles. I try to not drink great beer when I'm already drunk. chuckleshuffle

I usually one big bottle and a 6 pack of Abbey after that.

You're in better drinking shape than I am. I'd have a massive hangover. Back in 2006? No problem.

I have hangovers. Just not bad ones. Really depends on how fast I drink. I did get to try ABT 12 last night. Very good beer. The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tulsa had it in small bottles. $10 a bottle. It was worth it.

I drank a 4-pack of the O'Dell Chocolate Milk Stout last night while I watched hockey.

 

It wasn't too bad, but it didn't really have a whole lot of chocolate notes IMO. It also was a bit thin for a stout.

 

My favorite is probably still Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

I would agree that it is thin for a stout but, since I'm not a huge stout fan, that didn't really bother me. I am surprised you didn't get a whole lot of chocolate notes from it though. I thought they were quite pronounced. It's quite possible I just have not sampled enough stouts to know my way around them. I am going to try that Young's Dbl Choco Stout and maybe see what I've been missing. If stouts get better than the Odells, I may have to reduce my preference for hoppy IPAs.
