The gift of six
Left to right, Summit Great Northern Porter; Goose Island's Winter Mild, 312 and Honker's Ale; and Mamma Mia Pizza Beer
My friend Will traveled to Chicago to spend Christmas with some family, and he came back with a six pack of beer for me. What a guy! The best part of the gift was that I had never tried any of the six beers before.
So far I’ve had all of the Goose Island beers and I’m drinking the Summit Great Northern Porter right now.
I’m saving the Mamma Mia Pizza Beer for a special occasion.
The Summit is nice and roasty, with a medium body. Refreshing and flavorful. All of the Goose Island beers were excellent, too.
Cheers, Will! Pizza party at my place in a few weeks.

No problem man, anytime. Glad you enjoyed them. I really enjoyed the Goose Island style, but didn’t particularly care for any one of them. I’d imagine a beer I’d like would be similar to the crisp, flavorful, clean style of Goose Island. I have to say I love the label for the 312 though… I really want it as a poster.
The porter was a little heavy for me.

By the way, you missed mention of the Goose Island IPA
