Notes & Comments:
(side bar) "The return of the Licorice Stout, the 2nd in the Fool Circle "signature Series", as by request from the Black Jelly Bean Brew's biggets fan, Robert Desjardin. Ironically the last time this was brewed 4-10-01 is the same date this beer is ready to be served 4-10-04. If you're very fortunate (or not) you may even get a chance to try the XXX-version of this beer, "Anise in Wonderland" - ask about it."

Assistant Brewer: Robert Desjardin

What makes this beer so great is that it was originally on of my biggest flops, not too many licorce fans I found out. Also, Robert doesn't really like black licore, but he adores this beer - go figure. Furthermore, this beer is very sound in theory, stout - black - licorice, roots, grains, herbs . . . I think you feel what I'm saying, I hope . . .
