Scura che in controluce fa vedere riflessi rubino, schiuma marroncina finissima e pannosa.
Tostatura leggera, molto bevibile.

The head is robust, the body black. It smells a bit roasty, darkmalty, less hoppy, bit coffee. The taste is mild, bit roasty, creamy, bit malty. Ok but for me a bit to mild in the taste. 14/10/9/10/-/10

UPDATED: MAR 24, 2013 Draught and can on many, many occasions. (But for the purpose of this rating, Cyprus Avenue.)
Pours a beautiful deep murky brown-black with a thick off-white nitro head. Aroma is somewhat lost through head, but I can still get roasty cereals, bitter chocolate and molasses. Taste is a light sweetness with a big bitter kick, just as you want in a stout. Perfectly smooth and slick palate with a nice full body and a lingering bitter finish. A beautiful stout, packed full of flavour and complexity for a nitro. Comfortably the best of the 3 major brands of stout, and my go to beer in most bars in Cork. Marvelous.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Black colour, medium beige head.
Coffee, ashy, roasty, rather dry.
Flavour is distinctly roasted, light sweetness, medium bitter. Average mouthfeel, good stout.

Can and Draught. Despite the excitement when this was originally released int he US I found this brew to be third out of the 3 major Irish Dry Stouts. It beats a pale lager any day...but so does water.

#92
Nach Guinness der zweite Thronanwärter in Sachen Stout, aber auch nur, weil Beamish das Guinness-ebenbürtige Gillespies Malt Stout aus good, old Scotland aufgekauft und dicht gemacht hat - so schafft man sich Konkurrenz vom Hals. Insgesamt deutlich weniger Charakter als der Klassenprimus: Weniger Röstaromen, dafür deutlich süßlicher. Ein gutes Stout nichtsdestotrotz.

Draught. Hey black with a large creamy head. Aroma of sour roast. Flavour has a constant level of bitterness, roast, some coffee. Creamy finish
