Midnight toast

Last April during the annual trip to Jacobs Field and Great Lakes Brewing Co. for Cleveland Indians opening day festivities, growlers of their phenomenal Blackout Stout came home to NC. One remained after all this time. It fulfilled its duty quite well for a New Year's midnight pint.

8 months old, and still carbonated like a champ. A touch of oxidation in the flavor, but nothing off-putting. Liter swing-top growlers kick the daylights out of screw-top growlers.

Happy New Year's!
