Beer of the Week: Obsidian Stout

If there ever was a good week for something brutally dark and rich and comforting to help get through the dark days of winter, this would be it. While Chicago suffers yet another bone-chilling, snow-covered few days (high of 10 today, folks), Roper picked an apropos brew this week. It’s Obsidian Stout from Deschutes Brewery in Bend, Oregon, and if you’re looking for something to go with that cassoulet or slowly-braised beef, this is it. Cheers.
