This smoothness balances out the copious quantities of roasted barley used in the brewing process to create a rich, complex, and delicious beer. If you have not been a stout drinker in the past, give this beer a try. It might just change your mind about how dark beers should taste. It tastes so rich, but is surprisingly easy to drink!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Why I selected Buffalo Sweat:<\/strong><br \/>\nI had the extreme pleasure of visiting Tallgrass in the middle of November. While the drive was long from Kansas City, it was like reaching a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. Tallgrass produces all cans and this is one their best. Buffalo Sweat is the stout you want to have in the can. In it\u2019s own right, the stout is malty and sweet, and it\u2019s light enough to enjoy year round.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.2beerguys.com\/images\/forblog\/advent12\/tallgrass-buffalo-sweat-wturkey.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In this particular photo, I enjoyed a 4 pack (shared\u00a0among\u00a0family of course) of Buffalo Sweat with my family and friends over Thanksgiving dinner. I suggest you make friends with someone in the midwest and make a trade for any of their beers, especially this beer, as it will keep you warm this holiday season.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.2beerguys.com\/images\/forblog\/advent12\/seacoastbevlab-logo.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"455\" height=\"104\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>About the blogger:<\/strong><br \/>\nSeacoast Beverage Lab is a blog about beer written by Brian Aldrich from Portsmouth, NH.

Tricia had asked Jeff THAT question: \u201cWhat do you want to do with the rest of your life?\u201d Jeff had been thinking about that exact question quite a bit. \u201cI want to start a microbrewery!\u201d Jeff answered. He had been an avid homebrewer for six years and loved to brew beer that people enjoyed.
