Beer Boxing Day. Railyard Brewing, Nitro Stout


 Oh hey again, we are back for our third instalment of Lonebikers Christmas 22 Beer Friday Bonanza. I think yesterdays write up before I got I to the beer was a little weird and I almost edited it out and decided to just leave it. Instead I made a promise to myself to write about something wholesome because it is still sort of Christmas and this is a family bike beer blog. So I will write some suggestions below and let you choose what I talk about. Lets go:

Abortion.

Incest. 

Guess the next plague.

Putin is allllllright.

So what will it be? I'll wait till you answer.

Guys I'm sorry, I went too far again as I have been stuck in the house all day and this is the end result. I threw away the thought of a bike ride which would have been better than sitting around the house. Instead you get this version of the lonebiker where deep down I am kind of concerned as to why everyone is now driving the same god damn car nowadays but figure that will be boring so I introduce spicy tops like suicide to the mix. I am sure this is not the first time someone has read something on here with raised eyebrows. 

Railyard Brewing from Calgary is one that I was sure I had on here before but did some searches and could not find anything making this Alberta brewery's debut on here! *interns stand and immediately applause. 

You may have noticed a theme of stouts over Christmas and we have another that rolled into the glass for the third day in a row. This time though Railyard's had very little head and our head pourer had to fight a little to get the slim one he got for the picture. The same roasted malt smell with chocolate and coffee. 

This one has a nice feel in the mouth. A body feel I think is what the good beer reviewers call it, this one was nice and smooth and had a nice balance of roasted malts, chocolate and you guessed it. Coffee. Wow, how amazed you must be. This one was nice and smooth. It was tasty and a bit more pleasurable than the others I tried this Christmas. A great stout showing the others who is boss (at least in lonebiker lore.) 

This beer gets 4.5 suds out of 5. 

The Winds Blow in Alberta This Time of Year

Alberta is windy as fuck in April. Hence...you yourself may have complained about the insane wind we have been having lately. I have spouted...
