However, if you want 11% booze content (AND I DO), try Flying Dog's Imperial Porter (again, I'll reiterate this one). It's great booze from an otherwise overrated brewery. Do it, loaf. Do it.

I just found a place in town that has a tremendous beer selection, one of the better selections I've seen around. They have the Flying Dog Imperial Porter, so I'll have to pick it up.
To that end; I got a bottle of the limited edition Sam Adams Chocolate Bock. The Beer Advocate guys slam it, but I really liked it. It's the closest thing I've found to Rogue Chocolate Stout. Even though it's a bit pricy, it's definitely worth it.
