COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brooklyn Dry Stout is a bold, reddish-black Irish-style stout, rich in color but low in alcohol and very drinkable. The dark colors results from brewing with roasted malts, lending Brooklyn Dry Stout a chocolate/coffee-like flavor with a bit of an espresso bite. The finish is dry and crisp and invites another pint.

Another winking lizard draft, this time in fairlawn. very easy to drink, a slight chocolate flavor, almost reminds me of a stout light, but in a good sense. Very enjoyable.

Draft at Winking Lizard. Black liquid with a small head that was hard to see in the dim lighting. A somewhat roasty/bitter chocolate aroma/flavor. The body isn’t too heavy and the finish is quite dry. It went quite well with my bar food, it didn’t interfere with any overbearing flavors or aroma. Very light and drinkable.

On Draught at the Winking Lizard Columbus Ohio, - Pours balack with a fair tan head that didn’t stay too long but left some lacing on the glass. Nice aroma of coffe and roasted malts. Flavor was mostly coffee, but a touch of chocolate and roasted malts is there as well. Finish is dry and leaves you wanting more. Smooth easy drinking. Nice dry stout..

Dogbrick (4531) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - MAR 8, 2006
On draught at Winking Lizard in Columbus. Pours flat black with a medium and foamy beige head that disappears pretty fast. Thin sheets of lacing. Aroma of malt, coffee and some chocolate. Fairly rich mouthfeel and nicely creamy, with coffee, bittersweet chocolate and hops flavor. A bit of roasted malt in the background as well. The finish is smooth and creamy and has a lingering coffee bitterness. Examples like this or GLBC Wolfhound remind me that this style doesn’t have to be boring. Well done.

A very Guinness-like stout, but creamier, and without the sour finish. This was a good-looking, frothy-headed beer, with subtle flavors of chocolate and coffee.

notalush (3617) - Denver, Colorado, USA - MAR 19, 2003
Probably the finest American-made dry stout I've had. Tastes very similar to Guinness, but without the bitterness. Slight chocolate undertones with a nice, dry finish.

Dark in colour, but not completely opaque. Definate malty aroma throughout. Good taste, slightly hoppy, but definately malty!! A good overall beer, not overwhelming like a normal Stout, but clean enough to drink a couple of!

The sample we had was Cask conditioned and hand drawn. Nice color, with a very rich, roasted flavor. The palate was soft, almost buttery on the tongue. A little dryness at the end.
