This is a wonderfully complex stout. With notes of toasted oats, roasted barley, and black malt. Marris Otter malt comes through as well. Fantastic Stout! The pub "is what it is" but come here for the beer!!

Got to love this one. Strong malts and hard hitting stout sour/sweet anise and coffe grind pungent punch in the mouth. I was imperssed and pleased that I had something this good after the weak wheat offering I had here.

Black with tan head. Aroma of dark malt an coffee. Flavor of very dark coffee and also chocolate malt - like a very dark and heavy robust porter.

Draft at brewery. Body-opaque with a very thick ring of bubbles. Nose-lightly soured milk, light coffee, toffee. Taste-light sweetened coffee, very low hop presence, piney, lightly grassy, kind of soft mouthfeel, light unsweet Dr. Pepper, toothpicks, soft finish., Quite enjoyable stout.

This was an extremely nice beer to drink. Full bodied and very much on the big and rich side, creamy mouthfeel with lots of malt ball and chocolate creme maltiness. Burnt bread crumbs, and a bit of roasted coffee come through as well, this would have been just fine being this malty, but the piney hops kind of throw it out of balance in the finish in my opinion. Still lovely to drink.
