#GooseIsland #Beer Company has a line of IPAs under its “Beer Hug” label, featuring largely higher-alcohol beers across a variety of IPA subcategories. The latest in the lineup is Big Hazy Pineapple Beer Hug, an imperial hazy IPA that clocks in at 9.9% ABV. The company recently sent me a can of the new beer to review, in 19.2-ounce stovepipe format.

Cold AF outside, -2F made for a chilly walk back from theater. Gotta warm up!

#gooseIsland Bourbon County 2025 small bottle is a perfect night cap

Full syrupy body, rich with bourbon and dark fruits and molasses(?) notes, super hot and boozy

It’s still dark. Getting darker from one side, seeking light from another. May light prevail.

#gooseIsland Cherries Jubilee #stout

Rich syrupy body, chocolate, dark fruit, sweet cherry with a hint of citrus. Almost too sweet - let it warm. Let your heart warm.

Breaking all traditions, lobster bisque shrimp pasta for Christmas Day dinner. Haricot green beans and rustic breads, fabulous eats!

Pair it with a #GooseIsland Bourbon County 2025, rich flavors to complement rich flavors.

Awoke to -13F, it’s an inside kind of day, keeping warm as best we can

#gooseIsland #bourbonCounty 2025 Chocolate Praline #stout hits the spot!

Big nutty bourbon lead, a thick rich chocolate, caramel, and dark fruit body, and a lasting hot boozy finish. Let it warm!

Was gonna hang out in the backyard but darn it’s getting cold. And that comfy chair isn’t…

#gooseIsland 2023 Backyard #stout is rich tart berries and chocolate even on day 2 of being opened.

#itsAlwaysStoutSeason #winter

So many people posting their aged #gooseIsland bottles, it’s time for this “young” 2023 Backyard Stout. Let’s call it dessert after dinner!

Aged beautifully, body is rich chocolate with red berries, still a boozy finish with a tart punch.

Stopped at the Total Wine in Bloomington and there was a massive #foundersBrewing end cap (and then some) right up front

The #GooseIsland choices were on a two shelf cap back by the bathroom, totally low-traffic space, last year’s selections all $3 off per bottle. No high-end 25’s at all
