Beer - Full Time Drunk · by Priya Nair · 2026-11-04

Dark beer season is here: what's your go-to when it's this cold?

First real cold week and I've switched from pilsners to the dark stuff almost overnight. Currently going through a Baltic porter that's rich without being syrupy, and a classic Schwarzbier for weeknights. I find the big pastry stouts too sweet after one glass. What's the dark beer you keep coming back to when temperatures drop?

Baltic porter is criminally underrated. Żywiec Porter is cheap and better than half the craft stuff
