Commercial Description:
Samuel Adams® Cream Stout is a true cream stout, balancing body and sweetness with the natural spiciness of grain and hand selected English hops. Our Brewers use generous portions of roasted chocolate and caramel malts as well as unroasted barley to impart a fullness of body, a roasty malt character and rich, creamy head. Its dark mahogany color make it almost as easy on the eyes as it is on the palate.

The head is dirtier than Guiness’ head, but its still cool to look at. After a couple of gulps you lick yor lips and notice a sweetness. Weird. Kind of like a Guinness, but not as silky smooth. A good winter beer. I like it. There is definitely some chocolate in there.

La bière est de couleur noire avec des reflets brun et une belle mousse chocolat qui laisse ses traces au fil des gorgée sur la paroit du verre. Au nez on respire des arômes de chocolat noir, de café, de caramel brulé ainsi une pointe de vanille. En bouche le corps est moyen-rond avec une effervescence moyenne. On goute des saveurs de grains torréfiés, de café, de chocolat noir, de vanille et de caramel. La finale est seche.

Opaque dark brown with red tint, thin tan head, and some lacing. Chicory, mild coffee, and malted milk aromas. Soft and creamy, gentle mouthfeel. Mild, balanced, malty, creamy, with light mocha. Simple, on thin and watery side.

Bottle. Pours a dark black with a tan head. Smells like chocolate and roasted caramel. The taste is somewhat sweeter but not to bad. Taste is somewhat like coffee. Very decent beer

In the running for my all-time favorite brew. Like all stouts, meant for slow consumption and savoring rather than binge drinking. One of the sweetest beers I’ve had, and heavy without being overpowering.

Bottle. Dark brown pour with tan head. Smelled like roasted malt and barley, was very nice. Taste was slighty sweet at the start and moved toward slightly bitter at the end, I thought it was balanced nicely. Leaves a nice roasted type taste in your mouth long after finishing it and goes down smooth. This was my first Samual Adams beer, and I was pleasantly surprised. A very drinkable beer.
