3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Acheté à la SAQ sur le nom de sinha stout et dégusté dans un verre de maudite. Apparence d’un noir intense avec une mousse persistante et collante. Arômes de pain grillé, d’hicory, de vanille bourbon, de caramel écossais et de sucre brun avec une touche d’olive noir et de mélasse. Un goût délicieux et équilibré, crémeux et avec du corp. Le goût est la même chose qu’olfactivement.
4.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Lion Stout brewed by Lion Brewery (Ceylon) http://www.lionbeer.com/
Beer Style: Foreign Stout
4 out of 5 on over all drink-ability
625ml in a 12 oz bottle, 8.0% ABV
Aroma: A pleasant medium strength aroma of fruity esters with strong notes of dried fruits. Rather pleasant, thought I would like aroma to be a little stronger.
Appearance: Pours deep rich black with a tan head. The beer clings to the class. When the head dissipates it leaves the top of the beer clear and smooth, reminiscent of a deep mountain lake at night.
Flavor: The initial taste is light with smooth roaster grain, malts, and coffee and first. The after taste lingers while the flavors intensify.
Mouth feel: It has a thick, rich and luxurious feel in the mouth. There is a light bite on the lip and tongue. The carbonation starts out strong but dissipates quickly improving the lush feel of the beer.
Overall Impression: It is very easy to drink; when the bottle was gone I was wishing I purchased a second bottle. The flavors are strongest in the after taste, as they should be in a beer you wish to remember.

3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle - Opaque black. Tan head which dissipated half way through. Sweet, roasty malts, slightly smoky with a bit of coffee and molasses. Not very hoppy making it a bit on the sweet side for me.
3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
330ml bottle (Systembolaget, Sweden)
Jet black, beige head. Soft sweet creamy gentle coffee aroma. Pleasant carbonation, very soft creamy coffee palate. A touch sweet, but a really good rich burntness. Both quite heavy, but also refreshing - doesn’t feel like an 8% beer at all. Some bite to the hops to accompany the burntness. Finish is cocoa-like, and with some hoppy tingle. Very tasty stout.
