I like a malty sweetness backed by between a flick and a punch of bitterness.
Some of my favorites: fade to black by left hand brewery, kilty pleasure by philadelphia brewing co, holiday porter by sam adams.
I could use some good suggestions to try, I live in the states so something available here would help.
I like your taste in beer my man, im quite partial to dark and bitter types of ale myself although i like lighter ones to mix in because refreshing taste. Black Douglas is a nice dark bitter ale (read as light does not penetrate) if its followed by a lighter one such as old speckled hen or fursty ferret it makes for a tasty evening.
im not sure how readily available they are in America, but they are pretty common here in the UK. Makes me sad that i cant find Black Douglas very often.
