COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Another Irish classic, this is the stout to have when you’re having more than one. Black Pearl has a deep, dry, roast flavour with the hint or bitter-sweetness that has made Irish souts world famous.
NOTE: This beer is now brewed by the Dwan brewer on Messrs Maguire plant following the closure of the original Dwan brewery.

Black body, very creamy head. Juniper berry flavor. Reminds me of that beer....eh...oh yeah...Guiness...

Mads Langtved (2246) - Copenhagen K, DENMARK - OCT 28, 2002

Not as good as Guinness. Very strong coffee taste. Very bitter. Your throat is like sandpaper after this one.

[Draught at Gullivers pub, Copenhagen] Like Guinness used to taste... Lots of coffee in the aftertaste.

Ungstrup (26227) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - SEP 26, 2002

A black beer with a black head. It doesn’t have much aroma, but a smoked flavor and a good bitterness. Definately a good stout.

DrBeer (825) - Solna Stockholm, SWEDEN - JUL 29, 2002

I honestly can´t read that much of my notes but it looks as if they say: Darkbrown with sweet smoked aroma and smoked malt flavor.

This is technically a very good stout, but I just found it lacking something. Helpful, I know.
