Stout - Dry / Irish

The Dry Stout, also known as the Irish Stout, is a black beer with a pronounced roasted flavor, often similar to coffee. The balance can range from fairly even to quite bitter, with the more balanced versions having a little malty sweetness and the bitter versions being quite dry. Draught versions typically are creamy from a nitro pour, but bottled versions will not have this dispense-derived character. The roasted flavor can be dry and coffee-like to somewhat chocolaty. It has a lower strength than an Stout, but with similar flavors. Darker in color than an English porter.
