A buddy of mine had mentioned he doesn't really seek them out due to their inconsistency, but I just figured fine, they aren't BL.  |
I'm legitimately surprised by this. I've had a large number of PP stouts, and don't ever recall one that was anything worse than above average. Granted, I got burned out on the sweet/syrupy stouts, so haven't had any for a while, but they're generally very highly regarded. Did they taste oxidized or infected?
Bummer to hear that, either way.
