Draft at night off a million zillion speedways 2012 at obriens. Standard black pour, with thin tan head. Coffee, chocolate, sweetness, roasted malt, and mild nutty character, which was a bit abrasive and rough. Some of the speedways were great, others (like this one) were sub par, but still a good stout.

Tap at O’Brien’s for Night of a Million Zillion Speedways. Pours ink with minimal red foam. Subtle nose, almost nothing detectable besides the normal Speedway dairy, coffee, spice. Taste is spicy, but rough and gritty. Pistachio doesn’t come through in a noticeable way. Don’t think this one turned out as planned.
