I was desolate when my bottled boyfriend (Bell’s Double-Cream Stout) went off the menu at Point Blank Brewing Company. So Nathan, mine host at Point Blank, introduced me to another, whom I love just as much.
Check it out, my friends. Chocolate. Oatmeal. Stout. With a LOCOMOTIVE ON THE LABEL!
Here is the back label, bearing a story which I don’t even care if it’s true or not. Friends, this is an excellent brew! Not sweet, by any means, but not bitter, it’s complex and well-blended, rich and full.
I had this with a pizza, but I think it would be equally delish with a fish sandwich. Mmmm….
If you’re in the Louisville area, come on over to Point Blank and check things out. They’ll be brewing their own before too long, and you may imagine how I look forward to that!
I’m posting at Fatal Foodies today with my Top 5 List of Fun With Broccoli.
A WRITING PROMPT FOR YOU: Make up some lie to put on the back of your favorite beverage.

Yeah, it’s THAT Edmund Fitzgerald. They apparently commenorate other sunken boats, as well, with other great brews. Kind of a bold statement, don’t you think?
