Rogue Ales was founded in 1988 by three corporate types who dared to ask perennial question-"American beers with taste - to be or not to be?" Lucky for us, Rogue Ales is dedicated to producing innovative, international award-winning beers to enjoy while you're pondering that and other lofty questions. If you're looking for something beyond watered-down, business-as-usual, the Shakespeare Stout offers 22 ounces of satisfying, status-quo-busting goodness. This "Best Of" offers a plush, creamy head and notes of chocolate, molasses and coffee - it's no wonder oatmeal stouts were once favored by nursing mothers! One sip of the Shakespeare Stout's dense black pour and you'll be reaching for a knife and fork. But all you'll need is a sturdy stein and some good conversation -- though this beer speaks for itself, if you're anything like the folks at Rogue Ales, so do you.
