Suede Imperial Porter

Another 3-way collaboration beer from Stone. These guys never seem to get it wrong, and with some help, this should be one badass brew!  Dark and roasty, but a bit on the lighter side, so this is legitly a porter, not a stout. Not sure I taste the flowers and spices, but then again I've never heard of "calendula" so I have no idea what it would taste like. But this is just liquid smoothness to the core. Such a great mouth feel with dark flavors, masking a level of booze not to be believed. This is just heaven! Great taste and feel, with a knockout punch. Sometimes I think these brewers are brewing just to me. I feel like a weirdo most days, but apparently I'm a demographic! I need to meet the other folks drinking these beers, cause we would have some great ole times together! MB
