Nitro can. Pours dark brown/black with nice 1 inch head that stays around. Nice chocolate, roasted malt flavors with hint of coffee. Minimal hops. Light bodied for a stout makes for a great drinkable session brew.

interesting pour, I saw parts that looked almost milky, and then black. Once poured, its an almost black color, with a thick retaining head that looks great. The aroma is nice. The flavor is light hops up front and roasted barley, dark coffee notes with some hops through to the finish. Almost no carbonation - which I do not care for. Overall generally light with not much body, that combined with no carbonation just doesnt do much for me.

33cl bottle from Publix Supermarkets (Tampa, FL). Pours a dark black, completely cloudy with thick tan head. Good retention and lacing. Aroma is sweet and roasted malt, coffee, dark ripe fruit, dark chocolate. Flavor is sweet and roasted malt with a milky, creamy texture, some coffee, dark chocolate, spice. Generally full body with a slightly sweet, slightly bitter coffee finish.

Nice nitro pour with a brownish swirling tan that settles to a much darker brown with a finger of permanent creamy eggshell head. Nitro aroma, thin roasted malt and chocolate. Taste is mostly roasted on a very light body. Decent beer available at many beer wastelands.

On tap. Pours a deep ruby with a one-finger ultra dense cream head from the nitrogen added. Great lacing. Aromas mostly subdued but there is some bread, chocolate malt, and coffee. Taste is a little watery and thin- perhaps the easiest drinking stout I have ever tried. Nice balancing hops creates a neutral aftertaste.

Um clássico das cervejas. A aparência é única, e o sabor encorpado e forte, com o inesquecível amargor.
