OHanlons Original Port Stout

Black with a creamy brown head... excellent lacing and retention. Aroma of cocoa, sweet berries, raisen and smoke. Soft carbonation and smooth mouthful giving flavours of smoked wood, raisen, chocolate... the port flavour exists but doesn’t dominate as I thought it might. Medium long fruity finish, a nice complex stout.

Veyr nice, good Stout, not creamy and somewhat watery. BUt in taste very nice of grains, and good bubbling foam.

An overall fine brew. Roasted barley with a floral hint in the nose, pours rich and red with an aggressive head. Tastes of roasted barley with an undertaste of coffee, a tad of hops, and, unsuprisingly, a smooth wash of port across the tongue. So smooth that one doesn’t notice the alcohol, which is a good thing if one is drinking this with a meal.

Bottle from a new supplier. It poured with a huge head and had the right stout flovors. I found it average what ever that means. In other words nothing grat but not bad.
