This week I try Harpoon Brewery’s much improve Chocolate Stout.

I also try some beer from the _insert_stinky_body_part_ of Ohio, Akron.

Tonight’s musical pairing is Mr November by The National as I am working with #TeamBoston to raise money to destroy cancer. Any amount from $1 up matters. Thank you in advance.

Portsmouth Brewery has that classic New England brew-pub atmosphere, incredibly smart beers, great swag and unbelievable mussels. You can’t go wrong.

This is not a brown ale. Watch the video to find out what it really is.
