Mountain Sun 8 Ball Stout

Brewed by Mountain Sun Pub & Brewery
Style: Sweet Stout
Boulder, Colorado USA

Draught. Body is dark brown to black. Aroma is moderately malty (roasted grain, caramel, chocolate), lightly hoppy (herbs, resin), with notes of vanilla and smoke. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, moderately bitter. Medium to full body, velvety/creamy texture, lively carbonation. A nice stout almost as enjoyable as the Java Porter, but for me the hop aroma as it warms reveals that resinous PNW style that starts to ruin it for me. Still, very good and one of their best stouts, IMHO.
