COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Many people automatically assume that Stouts are full bodied, heavy beers. The Irish style, or dry stout, like Guinness, are anything but full and heavy. Full flavored but light bodied, Boscos Dry Stout is the perfect summertime stout for those looking for stout flavor but not wanting stout heaviness. O.G. 1055 I.B.U. 30

Rustyham (1303) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - MAR 20, 2011
This was a very disappointing beer- it wasn’t dry, and there was no aroma. It was also very fizzy and translucent. I tasted some slight roastiness, but it was minimal. Overall, this was incredibly wet, and quite refreshing, but not what I would have wanted in a Dry Stout. On Tap at Boscos, Nashville, TN

nickd717 (3242) - San Francisco, California, USA - JUN 6, 2010
On tap at the Nashville brewpub. Pours very dark brown with a nice lasting tan head and good lacing. Aroma is like a better version of Guinness - roasty and chocolatey with burnt coffee notes. Roasty flavor with prominent dark chocolate and coffee. Tasty and balanced. Only slightly dry on the palate with medium-light body. This was my second favorite beer at Bosco’s after the Isle of Skye Scottish Ale. A great dry stout, very drinkable.
