Beer of the Week

The beer: Pineapple Coconut Stout

The brewery: Guinness Open Gate Brewery, Halethorpe, Maryland

Description (from Untappd): "Believe it or not, our stouts have been a big part of the beer culture all over the world for centuries - including in many tropical locales around the globe. With that in mind, our brewers sought to include the tropical flavors of pineapple and coconut in a traditional stout, adding pineapple puree post fermentation and then resting the finished beer on toasted coconut chips. Enjoy!"

Would I buy it again? I happened to be in the neighborhood of the Guinness brewery a while back and decided to stop by for a quick beer. I had a lot of options, but I absolutely made the right choice. This beer is delicious, with plenty of pineapple and coconut taste, but not so much to overpower the stout. Obviously, it's not as easy to drink as a lighter ale or lager, but the fruitiness still makes this a wonderful beer to drink over the summer. I'd love to get this again.
