OK, so you could get your loved ones beer soap. Or you could get them beer. (Or both.)
My current local, seasonal obsession is Dogfish Head’s Chicory Stout. (Maybe you could do a mixed six with some other stouts?) I first sampled these suds at Standard Tap, and I’ve been on the bandwagon ever since. Here’s what the brewery has to say:
A dark beer made with a touch of roasted chicory, organic Mexican coffee, St. John’s Wort, and licorice root. Brewed with whole-leaf Cascade and Fuggles hops, the grains include pale, roasted & oatmeal. It is roasty and delicious. It is also a fantastic food beer and pairs very well with chocolate!
And there’s a video! “Nature’s only anti-depressant depressant; so you can drink as much as you want.”
