So, I know I have a tendency to bang on about stuff a lot, if I get stoked on something. So forgive me if this sounds like old news, but man, how about that Ölvisholt Brugghús, pride of Iceland? I covered this in my post on Skjálfti, but I’ll give you a little refresher, if […]

Stone Hammer Oatmeal Coffee Stout – F&M Brewery
