Victory Donnybrook Stout

dbslabel_smI had an absolute great time drinking this yesterday.  Had maybe 10 of them plus two or three car bombs using this as a Guinness substitute.  I’m a Stout guy, I love dark beers.  This is one of the better Stout’s I’ve ever had.

The bar I was at did not have Guiness.  They told me the story why they did not carry it but I was way too wasted to remember that conversation and I’m sure I just gave an obligatory nod after the bartender was done talking.  I’m guessing that it had something to do with money though.

From the Victory Website:

The most refreshing dark beer you could ever imagine this side of Dublin! Low alcohol and roasted barley keep it clean and flavorful. The subtle earthiness of European hops harmonize with the roasted barley to offer a whiff of peat. Served with the classic nitrogen pour, Donnybrook delivers an impressive head and silken body of a classic stout.

COMPOSITION:

Hops: European whole flower
Malts: imported German 2 row malts and roasted barley
ABV: 3.7%
