A couple of these last night in the taproom.

While the Big Country is a Scottish ale rather than a stout it's very stout like.

The Three Hills is definitely a stout though.

Andrew at the Mounting Stone in Bramhall (famously the "least worst bar in Bramhall") has brewed a honeycomb stout which is a bit like a lovely vanilla ice cream with honeycomb bits and chocolate sauce. The smell reminded me of Mr. Whippy. A bit sweet for my taste but very nice.

Yesterday I discovered the Crich Brewery and Tap in Belper, and had a half of their excellent Buffalo Stance.

Do people have recommendations for good stouts from supermarkets? I’m a Guinness drinker in pubs but interested in trying a few others over Xmas

Had some Thornbridge Cocoa Wonderland at the club the other day, after the Thornbridge tap takeover.

Was very tasty.

For supermarket stouts Tim Tailors/Northern Monk, Northern Rising is very tasty. Available at Morrisons and M&S locally to me.

Mulligan's stout at Aldi is not bad if you don't want to spend a fortune on craft stuff
