Formerly brewed at Greenshields Brewery & Pub

(draft) Clear mahogany body topped by beige head. Aroma is sweet coffee. Taste is bittersweet coffee, some herbal bitter. Medium body. Pleasant, "accessible" stout, with that unusual herbal twist.

***WARNING**** ***BEWARE*** I’m more than a little hesitant to add this review as I think the two bottles I sampled were infected, but I will add my two cents on what was there.. ------- black color. Medium head. Aroma is malty and choclately. A light bodied stout. I think this bottle is infected as I am picking up a lactic wine like quality that shouldn’t be here. Malts are roasted and a touch chocolate. Hops and other qualities are masked by the sourness. Mouthfeel is thin. Rest is impossible to judge.

What you see is what you get with this beer. This could be a beer from an English pub. Strong, almost bitter flavor with a high alcohol content. Not my "cup of tea," but if you like dark beers you will like this one.

wowo this ages great found this in my dadswine cooler must be 5 years old. thin airy head with light spotty lacing. coffee, smokey malts. finish’s clean

Roasty aroma, creamy flavor. Nice coffee aftertaste. Goes down smooth. Not the best stout but at least average.

Bottled. Average stout. Nothing really stood out. Tasted what it should be.

Nice sweet stout. More coffee notes than chocolate. Smooth, fresh and creamy with medium body. Great on tap or in the bottle.

Dark hue with a nice oat/malt aroma. Smooth flavor domintated by oats with a lightly roasted espresso undertone. Very smooth, tastey maltedness. Finishes somewhat thin with a touch of bitterness.
