west Sixth has a fabolous cocoa porter out. Drank enough of em to forget the name. Check it out.

Still say blue stallion nails a pilsner better than anyone else local

Life brew (off Richmond road) has a fabulous American brown ale. They also run a pilsner that ain't bad, but isn't as good as blue stallion in my opinion.

Still like shotgun wedding from country boy.

Ethereal has a great stout.

Pay it Forward Cocoa Porter. Their coffee stout is really good, has very strong but smooth coffee flavor, but I've only seen it on tap at their be location.

Most of the time I drink Keystone.
Ice.

Pay it Forward is a completely different beer when fresh on draft versus what's in cans. The cans are fine, but the draft is a really good porter.

To be honest, West 6th used to be infuriating. Go to the brewery and there were 10-15 great beers on tap. I mean great. The ones that went into cans were almost always the ones I liked the least at the brewery.

Then Heller Heaven came out. Then Pennyrile. Now the sour. They've started to figure it out.

So multiple "beer snob" groups I follow are all in a frenzy over Homestyle IPA from Bearded Iris in Nashville. Anyone tried it, and is it worthy of the hype it seems to be getting?

Not to belabor this but a canned porter just doesn't sound right. Do they not do bottles at all?

They may. I really wanted to hit up West Sixth during my last visit to Lex, which happened this past November. Ran out of time. Settled for craft beers from Kroger and Trader Joe's.
