Taste off my friend’s glass. Pours black with a little ring. Nose was sweet with a bit of lacto. Taste was light and thin, a pretty eh stout.

Draught. Black body with a creamy white head leaving some spidery lace. The aroma consists of dark chocolate and dry bitter coffee. Amazingly very bitter and dry in the palate with a prominent coffee profile. There isn’t really much else though.

Deep black color, with a small tan-colored head, coniferous nose, piney, flowery hops, quite strange for a stout, when the beer is getting warmer, a hint of chocolate shows up, faint roasted malts in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with yeasty, grassy, piney, flowery hops character, the beer seems lacking of roastiness, where is the dryiness from the black malt, quite strange, a mild chocolatey accent seems to reveal present, leading towards a grassy hops bittering finish.

Black body with a small tan head. Unexpected aroma as far as a stout is concerned. Close your eyes and you’d swear it’s an ESB or something. Coniferous, floral hops and faint roasted malts. Taste is also “unstouty”. Caramel, pine-tree, hops. Judged as a stout it is truly terrible. Ignore the style and you’ve got an average pub beer. I just had my first black ESB!!!
