40, 41, and 42

This is a big, awesome Russian Imperial Stout.  Old Rasputin is roasty, chocolaty and a little hoppy.  Full bodied with a nice dry finish.  Creamy light brown head with extreme lacing.  It will sneak up on you.

Beer: North Coast Brewing's Old Rasputin
ABV: 9%
Home: Fort Bragg, California
Birth: ~1988
Slogan: "How hard it is to make and keep a good friend" - Joni Mitchell














The Cascazilla pour a deep orangish brown color.  Floral aroma, malty, a little spice and a fruity finish.  This is definitely an odd one for the books, but I think it's great.

Beer: Ithaca Beer Company's Cascazilla
ABV: 7%
Home: Ithaca, New York
Birth: 1997
Slogan: "Capturing the spirit of the Finger Lakes"














A beer that I've always seen around, but never really tried - Geary's Pale Ale is nutty and has sweet notes of toffee.  Lighter and crisp, but with a lot of flavor.  I'll definitely not shy away from this pale ale again.

Beer: D.L. Geary Brewing Co. Pale Ale
ABV: 4.5%
Home: Portland, Maine
Birth: ~1983
Slogan: ""
