Dark opaque pour with a nice tan head. Sweet stout up front, with a touch of licorice ending. tronraner (1537), Maryville, Tennessee, USA Jun 4, 2008 Side-by-side of the regular draft and the cask version, at the brewpub, pre-Noogfest. Pours blackish brown with tan head. The aroma is slightly roasty with some char and bitter chocolate, and the cask version sports a bit of woody sweetness. The flavor is roasty bitterness with some dry hoppiness and a little bit of root flavor. Lactose sweetness is more evident in the cask offering, as is a bit of vanilla and wood. Both are pretty drinkable.
