Goose Island Mild Winter



Origin: Chicago, IL
ABV: 5.6%
Style: American Mild Ale
IBU: 28
What it tastes like:
This beer is available from November-February, which make up the bulk of bitter winter weather in Chicago. What better way to spend the evening than sipping this dark ale while you listen to the winds howl outside. With an IBU of 28 you can expect a bit of bitterness, but it certainly isn't overwhelming and it goes down smoothly, especially with the faint notes of caramel that hit your palette with the first sip. Try it with beef stew or rich cheeses.
