This also was tatsed at a special stout event on the fifth floor of the Guinnes Storehouse. The stout poured a rich brown color with tan head. The aroma of burnt coffee and malts was noticed at first. It had medium bitterness and body. Very average carbonation and finished smoothly with a hint of bitterness.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20 worldbeertaste (623) - Lancashire, ENGLAND - MAR 7, 2012
Dark brown with a soapy somewhat lasting tan head, Light carbonation. The carbonation looks like coke. Light smell of smoked malt, blackberry, coffee. Dry with a fullbody mouthfeel. Taste of roast malt that lasts. Light fruity. or maybe licorish feel. But constant. Better once the carbonation goes down.
