Jolly Pumpkin Miles To Go Chocolate Juniper Stout is the perfect companion for cold winter nights. Inspired by the classic Robert Frost poem, Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening, this dark roasted, sour stout has notes of chocolate, rye, citrus, and berries. It invites us to celebrate the enchanting moments of winter as we prepare for our next adventure.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

On tap at Jolly Pumpkin Detroit. Pours a deep brown with an off-white head. Tart cocoa and red grape aroma. Flavor is sour/tart with red, white, and green grape, oak, and a touch of cocoa. Very enjoyable.

DTW airport draught, 11/18/23. Undetermined clarity black with mahogany highlights. Faint beige bubbles on edge. Mostly souring acids in the nose, at least initially, while it's still ice cold. Sour, as is usual for this brewery, with the telltale heavy lactic, moderate acetic, low Brett character. Some chocolate and burnt cocoa on the finish. Maybe the juniper is intertwined with the lactic notes, hard to say. Medium to medium-light body, highly attenuated. Clean, not all that stout-like. Not tons of chocolate or juniper. Mostly a dark sour, which is fine. Doesn't really gain much body with warming. A bit thin and over-attenuated.
