COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Dogwood Stout is a dry, Irish stout. We use a combination of roasted barley, flaked barley and chocolate malt to create a complex, textured maltiness with hints of coffee and chocolate with a rich fullness of body. We leave it unfiltered to add to its complexity. Its deep, dark mysterious color is topped off by a robust creamy head. It too is naturally carbonated. Dogwood Stout won a Silver Medal Winner at the 1997 World Beer Championships and was named one of top two microbrews in Atlanta by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Dogwood Stout is available in bottles and on tap anytime of the year.

Very dark color with a thich tan colored head that is modestly retained. Aroma is very strong coffee with some cream. Flavor is also very heavy towards strong coffee. This works quite well for me since I love strong coffee. Excellent dry stout. Thanks Tom!!

Georgia’s on my mind with these great Dogwood beers courtesy of Ross. Can’t wait to tear into this one. Huge Eggshell head out of the bottle. Big Flavor, great coffee, chocolate, hoppy, malty full bodied beer!!!! Very drinkable and again Dogwood brews are great. This one again is another very underrated beer. Time will tell. Tasty beers just keep coming from you Ross. Another great selection.

Murphy (1759) - Fort Collins, Colorado, USA - JUL 22, 2004

Dark ruby. Decent brown head. Heavy on chocolate malts and licorice flavor. Slight taste of roasted malts. Slightly sour. Decent roasted/burnt aftertaste. A strange beer, but still enjoyable.

JahNoth (1039) - Rochester, New York, USA - JUN 25, 2004

I found this one buried in the ole beer fridge, a remnant of a year old trade with Jeremy. Still good, absolutely. Deop black pour with nice dandruff. Hugely roasted aroma - one you could smell for awhile. Modest body - reminiscent of a porter. Tasted of roasted barley, with bitter chocolate and a hoppy twang at the finish. This is a nice everday type of stout.

FormatKid (7) - Tennessee, USA - MAY 18, 2004 does not count

Pours out of a 12oz single a solid black, impervious even to direct light. It took an aggressive pour to get out even the meager off-white head it provided, what is there sticks firmly to the glass. Mocha and roasted coffee beans are heavy on the nose with a slight, vague fruitiness present as well. Smell is awesome. Mouthfeel is a bit lighter than I expected. Nice taste, sweet up front, roasty in the middle with light pangs of bitterness at the end. Very refreshing for a stout, almost pushes itself into "session" territory.

TheBeerCollector (599) - Woodstock, Georgia, USA - MAY 16, 2004

Roasted malt and chocolate aroma. Flavor starts out sweet but finishes quite dry and bitter. Could use more body as it is a little light for a stout.

Kudos to BeerCellar2 for the brew. Pours black, small head, goes quick. Malty and sweet. Really improves as it warms. I like!

SDbruboy (1857) - San Diego, California, USA - MAY 8, 2004

Thanks to The_Beer_Cellar2 for this one. Pours black and fully opaque with a moderate tan head that diminishes with little lacing. Aroma is full, with lots of dark roasted malts, bitter chocolate and oily coffee present. Flavor is nice, dry, bitter, tart and mildly sweet with an astringent finish. Thick body, mildly carbonated. Nice brew!
