On Tuesday, December 8th, 2020, we opened Dragon’s Milk Reserve. At first I thought we had this one last year, since they had an Oatmeal Cookie that was amazing, since it has the same colors, but then realized it was a 2020 batch. This is a bourbon barrel-aged stout with vanilla and chai spices. It…

Day 7: Ellie’s Brown
On Monday, December 7th, 2020, we opened an American Brown Ale. When I saw it was from Avery Brewing, I figured it had to be good – the beer we have had from Avery has always been really good.
Day 6 – Fantastic Voyage
On Sunday, December 6th, 2020, we opened Fantastic Voyage – I thought this one looked familiar, and what is interesting, is Josh had this one on December 7th, 2019… so 1 day off… and not even close to the amount of snow compared to last year. Here’s the link to the post: https://foodanddrinklover.blog/2019/12/08/day-7-fantastic-voyage-coffee-bender-tequila/ At first,…
Day 5: Omar Porter
On Saturday, December 5th, 2020, our beer tonight is called Omar Porter, which we have had in a previous craft beer advent box before. The only snow right now where we are here in the U.P. of Michigan, is what you are seeing in my painting… so sad! This porter is OK… not the best…
Day 4 – Be Civil
On Friday, December 4th, 2020, our beer for tonight is an American Brown Ale – Be Civil, by Civil Life Brewing Company out of St. Louis, Missouri. For the most part, I’ll tolerate a brown ale… not one that I would go out of my way to drink though. I will say, that this does…
Day 3: Breakfast Stout
On Thursday, December 3rd, 2020, our beer of the day is Breakfast Stout by Founders. This is a double chocolate coffee oatmeal stout. We are a huge fan of a lot of the different types of stouts that Founders brews. This does have a little bit of a bitterness to it, but the flavor is…
Day 2 – For The Graham
On December 2nd, 2020 our beer of the day is called For The Graham – a S’mores inspired stout. We have had s’more flavored stouts before, so this was exciting to get to try. This is brewed by The Modern Brewery, Inc. out of St. Louis, Missouri. It comes in a 1 pint can and…
Day 23: Vanilla Stout, White Chocolate Blonde, Sam Lord’s Rum
On December 23, 2019, we opened a vanilla stout, an IPA and a rum shot. The IPA has been replaced with another amazing local craft beer. Out of the stout advent box is the vanilla stout, which is brewed by Big Muddy Brewing out of Murphysboro, IL. This is actually one of my favorites, as…
Day 22: Chocolate Milk Stout, Borealis, Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey
On December 22nd, 2019, is a chocolate milk stout, an IPA and bourbon whiskey. The IPA was switched out for a local craft beer here in the U.P. of Michigan that is a fan of ours. Out of the stout advent box is the chocolate milk stout. When I was first introduced to this beer,…
Day 21: Oatmeal Cookie, Black Bear, Moonshine
On December 21st, 2019, the beer of the night and shot were some good ones. A ‘reserve’ oatmeal cookie stout, a Russian imperial stout and moonshine. Out of the stout advent box is Dragon’s Milk Reserve Oatmeal Cookie, which is a bourbon barrel-aged stout with cinnamon, raisins, brown sugar, oats and vanilla extract. When I…
Day 20: Brownie Points, STL Zoo Bier, Gin
On December 20, 2019, the work continues on getting the garage fixed up with adding a room that will be my office/personal space and as items needed to be moved, items were found that needed to be burned. Milo and Piper absolutely love the heat… more so Piper, who likes to get as close as…
Day 19: Dark Matter Porter, Fantastic Voyage, Tequila
On December 19, 2019, it snowed almost all day, so the cats enjoyed trying to catch snowflakes when they decided to go outside. Tonight, we get to both have a beer that the other has had already, which is fine because they are both good. Out of the stout advent box is Dark Matter Porter,…
