Stouts available but remained untasted.
More than I want to list out right now, so I took a picture instead. (See above.) As you can see there was still a lot of gas left in the tank. Some of these will be shelved away for next year. Others will be drank over the next few weeks. 

If you were drinking stouts over February which ones hit the spot for you? Which ones fell short? Which ones would you recommend to others? Let us know in the comments!
