Bare Knuckle Stout

Tap. Very dark small creamy head.Smells of dry coffee with some maltiness. Taste is pretty dry and a little hoppy. Finish is a little rough.

Black w. cream top, but not of chocolate. Easy hop aroma hovers over the roast. Nitrogenated, Caffrey’s-like body. A dangerously smooth, easy-flavored beer that deserves much higher props than its getting..

On draught @ Busch Gardens Tampa,Fl. Pours opaque black with a inch thick tan head that settles like Guiness. Roasted malt and coffee aroma. Good roasted malt and slight chocolate flavor with very little dark malt tannin and mild bitterness. Over all this is a very good beer.

A PRIME example of beer snobs vrs. beer junkies. If this wasn’t an AB product, it would be ranked much higher. Best beer AB makes, by far. One of the best Irish stouts out there. Coffee nose with moderate roast malt and mild chocolate flavors. Thick, crreamy, long lasting head. BETTER than Guiness.

Not a bad stout considering it comes from a major distrubutor. does go well with chocolate.

On tap the Wachovia Center in Philly durings Wings Lacrosse game. Ok beer. Godd for a AH product. Slight dry finish with a roasty taste in the middle

On tap the Wachovia Center. Black in color with creamy tan head. This stout had little aroma at all. Flavor was mild malts with a bitter finish. Nothing exciting here. The creamy head was long lasting and did help to counter the mild flavor and thin body.

At the end of the brew tour. Not an exciting beer, it’s in the same league as Guinness. Black colour, tan head. Not much aroma, not much flavour...
