Listen up, naysayers. My roommate just bought some mint chocolate chip ice cream. I had a mint chocolate stout in the fridge. I did what any normal human being would do. I mixed them together to create the world’s first (probably) mint chocolate stout float.
I didn’t expect much. I’ll admit, it sounds nasty. But it [...]

Congrats to Mike from St. Louis for having the wherewithal to have his name chosen at random! He has already stepped up to claim his prize, but there’s still plenty of time to sign up for next month’s chance to win two fully functional Monday Night Brewery pint glasses.

Bottling - 10 gal [...]
