Very friendly dry Irish stout. Not quite the character of Guinness. Good beer. Creamy, malty, decent body. pleasantly bitter. Nice beer. too bad not made in Ireland. Having a draft of this at Bodega downtown La Crosse, WI USA

Draught. Black, pale nitro cream head. Nose is little rye bread and dried fruits, mild burned edge. Similar flavor, a tad more roasted maltiness and hops, but still very subtle. Almost medium bodied, boring silky mouthfeel. Just a another nitro stout.

Can. Poured jet black with tons of nitro action and a creamy head. Looked just like the can actually. Tasted incredible creamy with notes of chocolate and burnt coffee. Very smooth and creamy. Better than Guinness in my opinion. Definitely would recommend to any dry stout lover.

Draught at the Wharf Aalborg. Dark with medium brown long lasting head. Aroma of roasted malts. Taste roasted malt and coffee and some sweetness.

Poured from 440ml nitro can into pint mug. Black with persistent 1 finger creamy head which leaves nice lacing on glass. Aromas of dark malt with notes of chocolate and coffee. Tastes of roasted and chocolate malts with a hint of coffee on the finish. Mouthfeel is silky, which is typical for any nitro dispensed ale. This is definitely a session beer.

It’s like a softer version of Guinness. Very pleasant to drink. Creamy, Cofee aroma, soft on palate, but very bitter at the end. It’s amazing to see the head forming as you pour it on the glass.
