Nitro... Pitch black ale with a creamy, khaki head that never goes away. The aroma presents coffee and vanilla. I’m not picking up much, if any, chocolate. Light to medium-bodied and silky with expired carbonation. Sweet with mild burnt bitterness. Well-roasted, lightly sweet finish that dries out a little.

on nitro-pours a retaining light tan head that laces and black color. Aroma is dark malt-cocoa powder, peat, roasty, secondary acidic hops. Taste is dark malt-chocolate, peat, roasty, faint acidic hops. Minimum carbonation.

Tap at the brewery. Pours to a really dark black body with dark red hues around the edges. A long lasting densely packed creamy tan head sits on top. The aroma is a strong dry coffee bean and typical Irish stout aromas. The flavor is really good for a 4.8% beer. Rich cold extract coffee meets that astringent black malt. Some light walnuts. The palate is really drying and leaves you wanting a glass of water. Slick texture. Medium body up front but light and airy on the finish.

The aroma is soft (muted) with roasted chocolate and coffee notes. The body is black with a fluffy (classic nitro) thumb sized mocha head that lasts for the whole beer. The first sip is big with chocolate and coffee. Nice toasty and roast malt accents through the middle. Some sweet cream in in the finish. Smooth and creamy feel all the way through. Well made beer.

Draft @ Redlight. Black nitro’d cascading head. Nice roastiness in the nose, and then lots of chocolate and coffee in the flavor. Dry thinning finish, typical nitro body. But at least there’s some flavor in there.
