Stout Month at Beer Works

February , my favorite month of the year. No , not because it is ski season (went once , never again), not because it of Valentine's Day (not one for mushy stuff on a specific day , should be any day of the year you show your loved one you care), not because Spring Training begins (although I am a diehard Red Sox fan and love to see the equipment truck pull away from Fenway headed to Fort Myers), but because it is Stout Month at Beer Works.
This year's stouts are Buckeye Oatmeal Stout , Espresso Stout , Milk Chocolate Stout and Curley's Irish Stout (a regular on the everyday beer menu).
Buckeye- A velvety stout with 20% flaked oatmeal smooth and roasted. Tasted grassy could not get oatmeal but had the biggest body of the four.
Espresso- Espresso coffee gives this malty stout its unique flavor. Tasted like black coffee in a pint glass.
Milk Chocolate- Full bodied dark ale flavored with lactose and chocolate. Could not find the lactose and it was more bitter dark chocolate than milk chocolate.
Curley's- Silky Irish-style stout with a creamy dense head. My favorite as long as it is on the menu I am there, nothing better than a 22oz of Curley's any day of the year. Love it Winter , Spring , Summer or Fall.
My favorite month is February which has now come and gone and now March is here and Beer Works has Irish month so check out Beer Works with locations in Boston at Fenway and Canal Street , Salem , Hingham and our favorite Lowell.
