Guinness is releasing two new beers that are sure to brighten the mood on an expectedly bleak holiday season for anyone who lives and breathes stouts.

The new Imperial Gingerbread Spiced Stout takes the warm flavors of gingerbread and bakes them straight into your beer. Brewed with allspice, ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg, the stout boasts an 11% ABV. Holiday pairing suggestions for the gingerbread stout include roasted pork with fig, vanilla pan cotta, or creme brûlée.

I might just have it with some Little Ceasars this holiday if we're being honest.

Also joining shelves will be Guinness' barrel-aged Imperial Stout Aged In Bourbon Barrels, which features notes of chocolate, bourbon, coconut, and vanilla. At 10.5% ABV, the Imperial Stout boasts an oaky finish.

You can find these two new Guinness stouts at retailers nationwide for a limited time. Not gonna lie. That gingerbread stout sounds delightful.

i think you got a bad one. i have had a lot (probably my favorite style is stouts aged in barrels) and they tend to be so smooth and delicious. i am not a hop fan, so ipa's drive me nuts. the aging takes away the bitterness of the hops that i think i am particularly attune to in my palate.

hehee, see I like hops, its all about the hops. but I'm a picky bastad and dont like bitter, and it gets too astringent if you over hop, so its a delicate balance. I dont think I got a bad one because my buddy got one also and he said it was great. I'm not really that big of a fan of alcohol anyway, I like hops' cousin better :D gotta keep that stomach flat or my back will punish me!
