McMenamins Terminator Stout

The first time I had this I really liked it I guess, scoring it at 4, but the second time I had it it was terrible. Mostly tastes like dirty water. I didn’t even finish the sample. I since I was treated so rudely at the bar, this gets re-rated with the low score.

Too hit and miss for me. Sometimes this one is excellent while other times it is worse than Guinness.

This is a stout for people who don’t usually like stouts. Very complex, and much more carbonation than the usual stout.

This black ale poured witha thin tan head and a skunky aroma. The head quickly disappeared. The flavor is smoked malt, but rather thin with a carbonated chalky finish.

A stout I’ve had many times and come back to. Classic Mcmenamins flavor with burnt chocolate and slight black patent. This beer is good when is has higher carbonation. Almost like a heavier brown ale with some fizz!

on tap at Ringlers. pours a deep brown color with a small tan head. aroma is roasted and sugary. flavor is no surprise to the aroma, but a little watery. lots of chocolate, coffee, and ends a bit bitter.

Draft. Dark chestnut beer with a dark-cream colored head. Caramel, toffee aroma with light roast and light chocolate. Caramel, chocolate, sweet malt flavor. Medium-plus body. Chocolate and caramel linger. Nice balance. A bit of hops show through to add depth.

On tap at Edgefield. Black with small off-white head that leaves some small patches of lace. Sweet and roasty, with coffee, cocoa and vanilla. Sweet roasty malt, slight coffee note balanced by slight hop bitterness on finish. Moderate soft carbonation, medium mouthfeel, drinkable stout.
