Style: Dry Stout
Dublin, Ireland

Serve in English pint

Pint at The Liquid Rooms. Great on the palate. Not a bold drink. I’m glad that it’s for sale in places that otherwise only sell shite beer.

On tap at.. well most pubs. It poured a pitch black liquid with a thick creamy head. Smell and taste of dark malts, chocolate and toffee. Surprisingly easy to drink and light in taste.

Never been really impressed with this. It is usually my default when I’m out drinking if bars don’t have anything exciting. Nice creamy texture, and has some nice roast and coffee flavors. But that’s about it.

Appearance: dark brown to black, with ruby highlights and a cascading formation of beige, creamy nitro-thick head. Aroma: not strong--toasty brown bread, roasted coffee and chocolate, with a bit of mellow, slightly earty hops. Taste: roasty, with notes of café mocha, brown bread, light brown sugar, and toasted malts. Finish: smooth and creamy bittersweet, with a bit of a tang over the toasty malts and lingering chocolate. Notes: Since I got serious about beer about two years ago, this is the beer I keep coming back to over and over again as an everyday treat. I could literally drink this every day for the rest of my life and be completely happy. Wonderful taste and palate, and the drinkablility is unsurpassed. Near perfect.

Mer än fem år sedan jag drack den och jag blir påmind om att låta tiden gå tills nästa försök. Drucken på fat i England. Tunn som en mörk lager, krämigt len, men förvånandsvärt lite smak. Välj ett annat alternativ om möjligt.

11.2 oz bottle. Subdued aroma. Some roasted malt. Litltle chocolate. Pours deep cola colored, nearly black. Taste is smooth, dark, with hints of chocolate, malt, wood. Gets better as it sits and opens.

roasty, smoke, black, frothy, heavy cloying sweetness, medium bitterness, lightly sour, full body, long finish,

This beer is really pretty decent, but still nothing much to it. I like some more complexity.
