3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draught at Rattle n’ Hum, NYC, on January 28, 2012
Blac color, tan head. Sweet, butterscotch, roasted taste. Medium mouthfeel, medium low bitterness. There’s a familiar minty freshness in there as well. Fresh, sweet, minty, roasted scent.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bomber pours nice and dark with deep ruby red edges and impressive mocha head. The aroma has a thin pulse of toffee and then becomes dark roasted malts to burnt malts as well as a bit of chocolate and a whole milk sort of sensation. The taste delivers malts and nuttiness and then quickly gets over run by dark roasted malts, burnt malts and lingering black patent malts. In between the dark maltiness is a bit of chocolate malts too. Nice roasty brew.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Location: 22 oz bottle from Colonial Wine and Spirits, 1/11/12
Aroma: The nose is rather roasty and malty mostly, with some notes of coffee and caramel
Appearance: It pours an opaque brown-black color with a small light brown head and spotty lace
Flavor: The taste is lightly sweet, with a big roasted malt presence to it, and a lightly bitter finish
Palate: The body is medium-full, with a creamy feel, an average-lively carbonation, and a dryish finish
Overall Impression:
This is a pretty solid example of a roasted stout. This one hits the dry roasted style on target for sure. It is a very good example of the style.
3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pours black. White, small head. Smells very nice.. of roasted malt -- smells like a stronger stout. Mouthfeel is thin and carbonated. Tastes more like a black and tan, then a stout. Indifferent about this one, looks and smells like a strong stout, but with the first taste comes disappointment. It’s not bad.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
On cask at the brewpub. It pours dark brown with a disappearing bubbly brown head. The aroma is dark chocolate with a bit of roasted coffee beans. The flavor is very nice with coffee, dark chocolate and maybe some hints of licorice and anise. Nice stout.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a dark chocolate with a super foamy tan head. Beer smells of roasted chocolate. Tastes of roasted malts, chocolate, caramel with a super dry finish. Really great beer that is not overly complicated. Great beer that tries to convey everything Moylan’s tries to do with this beer.........
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dark malts and fruit in the aroma. The flavor is coffee, dark fruit with a malty undertone and leads to a dry finish. A bit more complex than a lot dry stouts, this was pretty good, unique.
