3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
From a Growler. I would call this a porter. Bit thin. Liked the subtle smokiness. Some earlier rating read that there are no roasted malts. I don’t believ this. Much better warm.

3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Tap. Max’s. Pours a clear dark bown body with a small beige head that faded to a wispy partial covering. The nose is pretty light, just a bit of sweetness and a moderate roastiness. A little bit of a coffee with cream kinda thing. The flavor is a little bland for me, nice roastiness with a bit of coffee and chocolate, but it doesn’t really come across as a Sweet Stout at all. Finishes with a dry roastiness and a nice coffee flavor that lingers a bit. The mouthfeel is a bit thin up front but fades to a slightly clingy finish. This is ok, but doesn’t really do anything too special for me.

Draft. Small beige head, clear cola body. Aroma is moderately sweet, roast, some milk chocolate. Taste is moderately sweet, roast, bittersweet/milk chocolate. Low carbonation, light-medium body.
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Meh. Tastes like Guinness with more of a backbone. The aroma is nothing special, taste is generic porter. Definitely a hit or miss.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Dark with brown head. Aroma/flavor are old chocolate and slight phenolic/smoked malt (even though none was used) A cool flagship stout that is interesting and has enough flavor to go around.

2.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Pours a deep dark black with mahogany undertones, very little head with a little dark espresso brown froth. Aroma is of sharp roast and coffee. Mouthfeel is a bit bubbly, slightly acidic and sharp. Tastes of very strong and sharp roast, a bit overpowering while finishing with a sour lactic note. There is a bit of dark toffee sweetness however it is severely overpowered by the roast. The finish is sour and a bit harsh. Strong fruity esters follow the roasted notes. On tap at Beveridge Place.
2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draught at the brewpub. Near black, small head. Aroma of coffee and licorice. Dry and heavily roasty with medium body and clean mouthfeel. Slightly metallic finish with more salty licorice.
