Beer for a Friday afternoon - a nice stout

[Lamar_Mundane]

Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout. Made by the brewmaster at our (CO) Governor’s brewpub. This is not a joke.

We’re certain that this is the ballsiest canned beer in the world. We believe it’s also the nation’s first twopack of cans.
The beer is made in tiny 8-barrel batches (instead of our usual, already small 20-barrel batch) and is the first in our new Even Smaller Batch Series of beers. (A barrel of beer equals 31 gallons and two standard 15.5 gallon kegs.)
Head brewer Andy Brown developed the beer’s recipe.
A meaty foreign-style stout, Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout is made with Colorado base malts, roasted barley, seven specialty malts, Styrian Goldings hops, and 25 pounds of freshly sliced and roasted bull testicles.
Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout is an assertive, viscous stout with a rich brown/black color, a luscious mouthfeel and deep flavors of chocolate, espresso and nuts. The beer sports a savory, umami-like note and a roasty dry finish.
Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout is 7.5% ABV and 3 BPBs. (That’s balls per barrel.)

Maybe not for the queasy types.

Go to Coopersmiths in Ft. Collins. Get real beer - vast selection - containing no high wierdness. Well, except Sigda’s Ghost Chili beer. That might be a bit wierd.

No pun intended.

Oh, I doubt that.

I’ll quote myself from 15 minutes ago in the “Strange Brew” thread:

@thelurkinghorror

Here you go: dung-smoked whale testicle beer.

Reviews aren’t great, though note that e.g. at least 1 gave it 1 star because PETA.

RMOs taste pretty good by themselves.

Yeah. When you’re drinking artisinal beers it’s a good move to keep track of their alcohol content.

You ain’t kidding. Couple weeks ago I picked up something from Boulevard Brewing Co., which makes fine beer. I forget what this stuff was called. Anyway it came in a 750 ml bottle. I figured, OK, that’s not even two pints. Two pints of beer is nothing. Except that this beverage was like 20% alcohol. After polishing off my 750 ml of “beer” in less than 30 minutes I felt a bit woozy.

The wife and I shared a Breakside IPA on the deck. Love that citrus punch.

There’s a restaurant here called The Blind Tiger. They have good food and a fine micro brewing operation. I just tried something called Smokey the Beer, which has a slightly “smoked” taste from part of the brewing process. Take to long to type it up. Quite tasty actually, especially as I like dark beers.

Let me fourth that and further mention that’s especially true with one of my favorite beers, Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout. Russian imperial stouts are so smooth you wouldn’t know they’re often 10% abv or more unless you read the label first.
