Rating #38 for 2012
12oz bottle cold from a stem glass. Burnt malt aroma, slighly sweet. Opaque almost black with a thin pale clay colored head, and streaky tan lacing. Taste was bland chalky slight burt malt with a creamy finish. Palate was watery with almost no carbonation. Was more enjoyable as it warmed. Very boring for a Stout.

Black pour with tan head. Aroma is roasted malt and astringent coffee. Roasted malt, light coffee, with a hinto sweet and a tad of earthy hops. Light bodied almost watery. ok beer

So far the best beer I’ve had in my quest to find the perfect beer for me. Great, milky head that keeps the full taste of this Irish stout intact with a colour blacker than the blackest black, times infinity.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 emartell (50) - Zapopan, Jalisco, MEXICO - MAY 17, 2012
Aroma con notas a cacao, cafe tostado y maltas con pequeños esbosos a chocolate.
Apariencia perfecta para una stout. Color intensamente negro. Carbonatación muy ligera, corona de espuma muy intensa y abundante, esponjosa y de cuerpo redondo.
En boca, cremosa, seca, aterciopelada y amarga.
Al paladar sobresale la cremosidad, pero sobre todo, el amargor y un final medio.
En general una muy buena stout, reconocida mundialmente. Excelente cuerpo y amargor caracteristico.

Can 500 ml. Pours black with a superb fully lasting creamy off-white head. Good lacing. Aroma isn’t strong. Slight notes of roasted/burnt malt, chocolate and coffee. Taste is medium sweet with slight notes of roasted/burnt malt. Mouthfeel is creamy. Hard to believe that this one was my favorite a couple of years ago... Beautiful beer with a nice mouthfeel and high drinkability but nothing outstanding.

Bottle. Classic taste and full thick body. Great full palate and aftertaste. A good intro to stouts. Best from tap in Ireland.

From the can poured (into my 32 year old Guinness mug) a dark black brew with a thick, rich, creamy head. Aromas and flavors of slightly roasty malt. Medium bodied with a dry finish. Almost as good as what you get in a pub on tap, but not quite.
