I hear good things. But yeah there’s ample amount of breweries to choose from between Columbia and the PA line and then on the eastern shore. I’m actually in the parking lot at hysteria brewing in Columbia waiting for them to open. They are dropping their dunkaroos stout collab with Fourscore today THAT sounds like an outstanding collab stout....I love when the breweries start sharing the talent with each other, great things often happen. Pour pics later!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 I'm into an Oak aged Vanilla WWS on a Saturday afternoon. Danger cap ignored. This is good stuff- very complex sipper. I still like the original WWS better. Probably a handful of super big imperial stouts that are as good imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pour pics later!! Yeah so, fourscore made a vanilla cookie stout and hysteria made a sprinkle cream stout. The idea is to blend the two. It was good. But let’s be honest it’s extremely hard to get the exact taste of something in a beer lol. I found that four scores vanilla cookie one was better on its own than the sprinkle cream from hysteria which is not surprising because fourscore is superior in brewing stout type beers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When are they brewing the next batch? Is it available for purchase anywhere? I cannot find anything other than the Oak aged version, and even that is hard to find.

Yeah, I feel you, man. I posted a pic of Smartmouth's "Saturday Morning" much-hyped Lucky Charms/marshmallow IPA a few weeks back, finally tracking it down a YEAR after its debut. To your point -- the exact marshmallow taste just wasn't there, but it honestly was just a good, general IPA. At the end of the day, this Dunka looks like a tasty stout....glad you got to try it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those beverages with high abv will "warm" ya. It is a "false" effect, as you are actually losing body heat- the alcohol causes dilation of blood vessels. Pour some bourbon in a shot glass and sip it. Then take another sip. Feel the warmth. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have bottles of the WWS at the brewery for $9 each. No discount on 4 packs. We picked up a single of several varieties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do think they have enough offense to get to around 70. But beyond that, the pitching would have to really surprise.

vastateofmind Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Thought of a number of you IPA/stout-loving denizens here when Mrs. V brought this home from Wegmans a short while ago -- Founders' (from Michigan) KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge imperial stout. VERY flavorful, borderline a dessert beer, and at 11.x ABV, perhaps the last one you should have for the night...but then again, maybe not. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimorewx Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 So like I said was at Hysteria Brewing earlier today for the dunkaroos drop. Good beer, but it doesn’t get any cuter than my 2 girls. My Gf and my French bulldog Lily 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
