The Poet

The Poet, New Holland Brewing Company, Holland, MI

(Sweet Stout, Rated 94)

I can remember a time when I didn't care for stouts much, but that didn't stop me from trying them. Hell, I didn't like asparagus on the first go around either. But now I love me a good stout. These beers can be so rich and flavorful. The Poet is just that...rich, creamy, flavorful, oatmeal stout with hints of coffee and chocolate. Excellent beer!
