  1. My son improved his marathon time again! 2:54:52 on his third 26.2 #twinCitiesMarathon

    After 7 miles of walking of our own, it’s #patioTime

    2024 #gooseIsland Macaroon #stout

    Big hits of ginger give it spiced snap, coconut richness on a chocolate stout backbone.

  2. First 1 mile split 32:46? Asked Toad 🐸
    We ARE walking the dog, said Frog 🐸
    Slow and steady wins the race, said Turtle 🐢

    #GooseIsland Cherries Jubilee Cask Finish #stout 2025

    Rich chocolate and cherry with a bourbon sweetness

  3. Cccccold? High temp barely 60F, long sleeves, this is bananas (but typical).

    Perfect weather for #gooseIsland 2023 Bananas Foster bourbon barrel-aged #stout

    Rich with cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate, bourbon and banana. Lasting tingle on the finish, well aged 2023 vintage. Warming!

  4. The gift is opened and the contents are AMAZING!!

    #gooseIsland 2022 Bourbon County Biscotti #stout

    4 years later, still beautiful with strong black licorice/anise, chocolate, ginger and almond. Bourbon background and a lasting tingly licorice finish

    BUT it’s not the Xmas match my wife has been looking for.

    Social friend, I am in your debt for the gift!

    #stouturday #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #letItWarm

  5. One million thanks to a friend from the socials who gifted me a 2022 bottle of #gooseIsland Biscotti #stout, just to see if it’s the “glass of Christmas” my wife has been trying to find again for years.

    I am in your debt my friend! Tasting this weekend

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #grateful

  6. Kids stopped by for dinner, had to pull out the good stuff!

    #gooseIsland 2023 Bourbon County Backyard #stout

    #firestoneWalker 2025 Ancho & Fig Parabola

    Barrel aged beauties! Rich flavors, rich conversation, lots of laughs.

  7. My wife is on a quest to find that one beer we had that one time that to her was “Christmas in a bottle”. This was way at the beginning of me getting her into #stouturday, so maybe 2021-ish?

    I really think it was #gooseIsland Cola Stout 2021 but it’s IMPOSSIBLE to find. Ideas? Sources for GI Cola?

  8. OMG the Chicken Vindaloo from the local Indian deli is 🔥 🥵 🔥

    Gotta put out that fire with some heavy fare - #gooseIsland 2025 Bourbon County #stout

    Deepened flavors after a couple more months wait - rich barrel notes, dark sugars, chocolate, vanilla, bourbon background. Well aged. Coats, soothes!

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer

  9. I say #itsAlwaysStoutSeason but even I may need to tap out today. 93F air temp plus 75% humidity feels like 96F. And we are going to 96F by dinner time.

    Sadly, I’ll stay inside with my 2024 #GooseIsland Macaroon #stout

    Chocolate with big hits of ginger and bourbon even 2+ years on the shelf. Tingly with a nutty ending.

    #stayHydrated #summertime #craftBeer #heat

  10. After a disappointing barleywine, cap the #fridayBeers with a favorite

    #GooseIsland 2025 Bourbon County BA #stout

    It’s a short bottle but big on flavor. Rich barrel notes, deep complex sugars, chocolate, vanilla, boozy bourbon background!

    #craftBeer #itsAlwaysStoutSeason

  11. Holiday weekend calls for dessert! Even if it’s with dinner rather than after. These #gooseIsland selections never make it a year on my shelf 😁

    Bourbon County Cherries Jubilee Cask Finish #stout

    Rich full bodied, cherries and bourbon, oak and cognac tang, deep dark fruit notes and a hint of citrus. Let it warm!

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer

  12. Sticking with the big bourbon, dark fruit barrel-y theme, next up!

    #gooseIsland Bourbon County 2025

    A small bottle goes a good distance at 14.8%

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #fridayBeers #craftBeer

  13. They stick it in a seven-year-old bourbon barrel and leave it there for a year. Then, they stick it in another bourbon barrel and let it sit in that one for another year.

  14. The Toasted Stout was one of the more expensive beers I've had at $65 per bottle. At that price, I expected it to be as good as the regular stout, but it was not.

  15. When I saw it in the store, it seemed inevitable that I was going to pick it up, even if I had already done this year.

  16. I'm not sure that that extra 10th of a percentage of ABV is really going to make that big of a difference.

  17. Had an MRI today (diagnostic) - been a while since I’ve experienced that odd soundscape body vibration machine.

    What else resonates with me? #gooseIsland 2025 Bourbon County #stout

    The bourbon hot opener is staring to mellow, rich with dark fruits and molasses, let it warm to bring out the flavor.

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer #letItWarm

  18. This is one of those scenarios where I know that this is owned by Anheuser-Busch, but I still have the impression of this being a relatively small brewery.

  19. #GooseIsland #Beer Company has a line of IPAs under its “Beer Hug” label, featuring largely higher-alcohol beers across a variety of IPA subcategories. The latest in the lineup is Big Hazy Pineapple Beer Hug, an imperial hazy IPA that clocks in at 9.9% ABV. The company recently sent me a can of the new beer to review, in 19.2-ounce stovepipe format.

  20. Cold AF outside, -2F made for a chilly walk back from theater. Gotta warm up!

    #gooseIsland Bourbon County 2025 small bottle is a perfect night cap

    Full syrupy body, rich with bourbon and dark fruits and molasses(?) notes, super hot and boozy

    #stouturday #itsAlwaysStoutSeason

  21. It’s still dark. Getting darker from one side, seeking light from another. May light prevail.

    #gooseIsland Cherries Jubilee #stout

    Rich syrupy body, chocolate, dark fruit, sweet cherry with a hint of citrus. Almost too sweet - let it warm. Let your heart warm.

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason

  22. Breaking all traditions, lobster bisque shrimp pasta for Christmas Day dinner. Haricot green beans and rustic breads, fabulous eats!

    Pair it with a #GooseIsland Bourbon County 2025, rich flavors to complement rich flavors.

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #barrelAged #stout

  23. Awoke to -13F, it’s an inside kind of day, keeping warm as best we can

    #gooseIsland #bourbonCounty 2025 Chocolate Praline #stout hits the spot!

    Big nutty bourbon lead, a thick rich chocolate, caramel, and dark fruit body, and a lasting hot boozy finish. Let it warm!

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #letItWarm

  24. Was gonna hang out in the backyard but darn it’s getting cold. And that comfy chair isn’t…

    #gooseIsland 2023 Backyard #stout is rich tart berries and chocolate even on day 2 of being opened.

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #winter

  25. So many people posting their aged #gooseIsland bottles, it’s time for this “young” 2023 Backyard Stout. Let’s call it dessert after dinner!

    Aged beautifully, body is rich chocolate with red berries, still a boozy finish with a tart punch.

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #stout

  26. Stopped at the Total Wine in Bloomington and there was a massive #foundersBrewing end cap (and then some) right up front

    The #GooseIsland choices were on a two shelf cap back by the bathroom, totally low-traffic space, last year’s selections all $3 off per bottle. No high-end 25’s at all

    #beer #craftBeer

  27. Had to crack one of the new #gooseIsland 2025 Bourbon County Stout choices for #stouturday

    Big hot bourbon opener, dark chocolate and sweet dark fruit (figs?) with a thick syrupy body. Needs to rest a spell to smooth out and develop.

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #stout

  28. The deed is done, except for the high-end ones…

    Not going to drive to St. Louis Park to find those, TW, you under-stocked clowns…

    #gooseisland #itsAlwaysStoutSeason

  29. @Raclarkmis thanks that’s good to know. I had the 2024 pretty fresh and it was just so-so too.

    Likely a pass for next year. Just wish the #gooseIsland choices were only $8 😁

  30. Looks like yesterday’s pour was a bit heavier than today… well darn, might have to find a second

    For now it’s happy #stoutThursday finishing this 2024 #gooseIsland Original BA #stout

    Simply irresistible!

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer @beersofmastodon

  31. No lead story just enjoyment!
    #gooseIsland 2024 Bourbon County original #stout

    Aged beautifully, the flavor has deepened and the original hot bourbon mellowed. Deep complex body with chocolate and dried fruits leads to a smooth boozy finish. Let it warm!

    #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer #letItWarm @beersofmastodon

  32. A Friday spent tangled in so many things.. wanting to escape but landed in what?

    #RevBrewing Deth by Bramble

    A fabulous berry explosion, rich with bourbon and a jammy body, a sweet and tart finish.

    Need to side-by-side with #gooseIsland Backyard, they are SO similar, blackberry here vs boysenberry there.

  33. Finally ended the work week…for now…what a crazy one… and of course as I head for the backyard…it’s RAINinG 🌧️

    Oh well, I’ll take mine inside. #gooseIsland Backyard #stout 2023 is solace in a storm. Beautiful rich body, berries over chocolate and vanilla, with a slightly tart bourbon finish
