Stouts
San Quentin's Breakout Stout- Marin Brewing. I enjoyed this most of the two. It was dark and roasty. The flavor lasted the whole beer, which the other beer didn't. It had a great flavor, which reminded me a little of barbecuing a hamburger. Why I don't know, but it had a great smell and flavor that triggers the brain to remember other taste. I am not sure if I had this beer before, but I would recommended it and buy it again. It went great with football.
Black Bear XX Stout - Alemeda Brewing. I opened this and had my customary two swigs. I thought it was one of the better beers I had in a while. It was dark, rich and smooth. It was warm and inviting. The problem was the farther I got into the bottle the less it tasted like those two swigs. I don't know if the alcohol or the temperature of the beer changed, but I was a little disappointed it didn't last the whole beer. I am going to have to try it again.

Chances are you have a build up of flavors. Try cleansing your palette through the glass.
oddly enough they were two different nights. i don't usually mix beers when tasting. like tonight is jubeale and alaskan winter ale
I have been to the Marin Brewery's pub in Larkspur. The food was good. The view of the bay was nice, but the beer was not great on that particular day which is odd since I love their sister brewery: Moylans.......
