More new school, big flavored stout than Big Hugs. Its comparable to Bottle Logic's best stouts (that I've had) and imagine it'll land at Kings given their current stock of HA beers.

Bought a few Big Hugs today, figured it was worth a shot... a couple of the bourbon barrel aged, one unleaded, and one with vanilla.

The barrel character is just silly good. It's a liquified chocolate covered Chick-O-Stick
One of the finest BA stouts Chicago has ever produced.

Had to Google Chick-O-Stick..... I have a long LA lineup, with Bottle Logic, Smog City, Modern Times, The Bruery, etc... and then Chicago is quickly taking over with BCS variants, Hubbard's Cave, the Mikerphone/Untitled Art collab, and now Half Acre.
I need to get an AirBnb started up there and work from there every once in a while... just for the beer.
