Why must I love it?
Because stouts are delicious!
I'm a fan of Porters and Stouts. Living near Portland Oregon, there are alwasy new beers to try, a the tri-county area is the micro-brew capital of the world.
If you ever get the chance, try Stovepipe Porter. It's the only beer that ever inspired me to write a letter to the brewery that made it, thanking them.
@Jnei Hmm. I tend to like many so-called "winter beers", which are only produced in the winter. Iparticularly like one called Black Diamond, which is a chocolate stout, and another one called Snow Plow, which is Milk stout. Wha tis really frustratign obut "winter beers' is that they are nto even produced every winter, when at least these two, I'd want o be avaiable yer round.
Perhaps, I shodul write to the breweries to let then know how much their beers are missed.
