Stopped by the Blue Stallion on a cloudy, threatening-to-rain Sunday with Kentucky friends who were not beer-hoppers but wanna-bees...and was surprised at the variety of styles the tasting room had to offer.

Comfortable seats (leather sofas! included), a small, quiet crowd and environment was perfect after spending a loud, raucous half hour at Ethereal (grand brewery but with the hockey game on full blast, almost a sports bar! Their beer made up for THAT!) -- it was a nice way to bring a good afternoon to an end.

Their Scottish ale was excellent as was the Oatmeal Stout and Ya Damn Skippy...a stout that was not; no, liquid peanut butter in a glass.

If you like your beer different and full of unique tastes, this one hits the spot. The only difference between Skippy and this beer is the color.

The service was quick and pleasant, the place not crowded, the beer selection extensive.

Since 2013, the brewery has been putting out German-style lagers and British-style ales and if wife Persimmon's (friends Doug & Wanda's) perception were any indication, they're getting it all just about right.
