Handwritten notes: Licorice abounds. (Note: I do not read the labels of beers while I'm drinking them. It is usually not until I'm writing these friggin' things that I actually see what they have to say. I did not know there was "brewer's licorice" in this beer). It is as satisfying as becoming an independent human being. Fall is here, the tang of hatred and cold are in the air, and stout eases them both into a flush-faced remedy to life's little annoyances. Good.
