COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
We produce a traditional styled Irish Stout that is served using beer gas to produce that familiar creamy pour. Our black stout has a roasted malt flavour and a hint of toasted walnuts and choclate in the finish. Select imported hops are used to dry out the finish of this ale.

GothGargoyle (571) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - MAR 11, 2013
Solid black with a large beige head that leaves some lacing. Aroma is chocolate, roasted malts, caramel. Taste is chocolate, dates, fig. Creamy mouthfeel, medium-light body, lingering maltiness on the finish. Better than Guinness.

Dark and roasty with coffee and chocolate. Somewhat thin with a suitably dry finish.

Decent stout. Pours into a swirling brown malt before settling into familiar deep black and beige head. Tastes bitter, with chocolate and burnt walnut.

440 ml can with a stupid nitrogen widget that ensures most of the beer will spray all over as soon as the can is opened. Pours black with creamy nitrogen induced head. Aromas of roasted malts - not much else. Creamy. Light bodied. Flavors of heavy roasted malt, toast, light milk chocolate, and ash. Easy to drink, a decent draught stout, but go to source - avoid the can.

After pouring this I thought the the aroma was a bit too smokey. I was wrong after tasting. Wow a nice light bodied stout. Another quality product from Mill St.

440ml can. Near black pour with a big tan nitro head that lasts forever. The nose is dominated by this chocolate truffle thing...like a good milkshake, really but there’s nothing else going on. More interesting on the palate but still fairly straightforward flavours of coffee and chocolate.

Mattman284 (2) - Mississauga, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 23, 2013 does not count
440 ml can. Poured a dark black colour with a creamy, long lasting, tan head. With an aroma of coffee with a touch of chocolate. Smooth mouthfeel. A slight bitter finish. Very enjoyable.

Viper666 (2706) - Saint-Hubert, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 11, 2013
Canette 440ml (Draught). De couleur noire et opaque. Nez de grains de malt rôtis doux, léger de chocolat noir avec des notes de noix grillées, de café, de houblon herbeux ainsi que quelques traces de chocolat au lait (faibles traces lactiques). Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement doux-moyen ainsi qu’une texture crémeuse azotée mais toutefois aux notes aqueuses. Petites notes métalliques azotées accompagné de notes de chocolat au lait (très faiblement lactique) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de malt rôti très doux avec un léger goût de chocolat noir ainsi que quelques traces de pain grillé puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume de houblon herbeux, un léger goût de café et quelques traces de noix grillées. Post-goût court-moyen, légèrement amer de rôti doux, léger de chocolat noir avec des notes de houblon herbeux et de café.

On tap in a 16 oz sleeve at Malone’s Urban Drinkery on Seymour in Vancouver. Pitch black in colour, with a tan head. Not much nose on this pour. Coffee and malt notes up front, with some bittering. Not a rich stout; a bit weak. Not far off of the flavour of Guinness, I reckon.

Ah, well! I now see its type is dry stout, so a good stout for type, I guess.
