On tap at Union Station as Dry Irish Stout. Pours a dark brown with a moderate tan head that dissipates fairly quickly. Aroma is roasted coffee and maybe a hint of chocolate. The bitter chocolate is a little more noticeable in the flavor. Pretty thin for a stout. Dry, bittersweet finish.

May 5, 2007 On tap at the Union Station location on 3/21/07 called Irish Stout: Pours a blackish dark mahogany with a frothy, pillowy dark tan head. Aroma of subtle dark caramel and roasted malts. Body starts with a nice malty sweetness and good, rich dark chocolate notes along with a smooth balanced, lightly roasty bittersweet finish. A nice dry stout.
