Yeah, about the 4 stars. I gave it 4 because it is still well made and actually a good beer. I think people rate it too highly, but tried to not let it cloud my judgment. I also tried not to let my preference get in the way too much, so I tried to work on quality, complexity, and other things before I tore it apart. I also stated that the coffee was too much, which is why it was lower. I had it at a 3.75 earlier but decided to go a little higher. I think the Goose Island is way better. I will say though that some would see the Bourbon as too much like did the coffee. So, preference on some stuff and attempts at being more objective on others.

This beer was recommended to me, and I think I’d give it a try although that Goose Island stuff is just mind blowing! I’m also really curious to see how you review the Canadian Breakfast Stout. (sounds like it should have bacon in it or something)!
