Watched a few innings of one of the NLDS games there. Sitting a seat or two down was a Cub fan, one of the loudest most obnoxious people I've run across.

Get you a Katie's meatball pizza and bring it in. That's what I'm going to do next time.

We called in for Pasta. Was hoping Katie walked it over to us

That's a pretty good list and I love the STL representation, though I have one caveat:
Heavy Seas Peg Leg (Baltimore, Maryland)
This year-round stout is understated. Roastiness and malt sweetness come together to plunder any palate brave enough to take on the adventure of another sip.
Meh. Heavy Seas hasn't done much for me in general.

But the others I've had on the list- the Oak-Aged Yeti (which the Hampton Schnucks frequently carries), Dragon's Milk, 4-Hands CMS, Schlafly Oatmeal, Deschutes Obsidian, Velvet Merkin... all great choices.

What a disturbing name for a beer. Well, for anything really, except a literal pubic wig made of velvet.

I am a bit of a wuss and like Stouts mostly with bit of sweetness to them. A couple good ones recently had:

Abita Macchiato Espresso Milk Stout - if you can get past the name.

the aforementioned Narwahl Imperial Stout.

Bell's Double Cream Stout.
