UPDATED: DEC 8, 2022 On tap at Abita, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out dry toasted malt and crusty dry bready. Flavour is dry, with a nice toasted malt character, dry cocoa, bready malt and a pronounced bitter finish. Dry and hearty, with a nice bitter finish. Good stuff.

UPDATED: JUL 5, 2022 Can. Black beer with a brown head. Chocolate aroma. Chocolate and roast flavor with light coffee. Medium bodied. Chocolate and roast linger with light coffee.

UPDATED: JUN 20, 2022 Above average Irish stout. Semi-sweet chocolate notes. Minor hoppy and dry finish. Good stout.

UPDATED: FEB 1, 2022 16oz can from Killer PoBoys in the Quarter. Big, rich and chewy, slightly sweet, and best part was I could walk down Dauphine Street with it after we were done eating. Goddamn do I love New Orleans. 🤓

UPDATED: DEC 24, 2020 Pours black with a three finger, tan head. Aroma is light hops, oats and roast. Taste is brown sugar, moving to roast and light hops. Finish is roast, brown sugar and light hops.

UPDATED: NOV 3, 2020 Can. Pours dark brown with a dark beige head. Roasted malt, chocolate, espresso, lactose, ash. Nice.

UPDATED: AUG 30, 2020 Can. Dark and opaque. Some ruby highlights. Roasty aroma, chocolate, coffee. Espresso notes are prominent. Roasty flavor, coffee comes through there as well. Not too bitter. Very tasty.

UPDATED: JUL 16, 2020 My first adventure with NOLA, I hope it goes well. I prefer the depth of imperial stouts but a good stout is always appreciated. This 16 oz can out of a four pack goes into my New Belgium snifter, classic black with a mahogany head that descends to a full skim. A fine scent, dark chocolate, syrup and a suggestion of berries. The taste goes a different direction, ash, black licorice, malt, semi sweet chocolate and earth. Nicely thick for a stout. Decent.

UPDATED: NOV 20, 2019 16 oz can This was given to me at a wedding in New Orleans What a find! The stout poured an opaque black with a tan head that dissipated to the outer ring of the beer. Only modest lacing. The aroma was of roasted malts, chocolate, and hints of licorice. The taste was complex with dried fruit like prune and raisins. You also taste more chocolate and licorice. The stout has a medium body with soft carbonation. Clean finish with roasted malts in the upper mouth.

UPDATED: JUN 16, 2019 I quite liked this. Very dry and roasty, with some dark chocolate. Not overly complex, but extremely well done. Can at The Commander's Palace, New Orleans trip 2019.
