St Peters Cream Stout

Dark brown, almost black, with a thick ligt brown foam. Tones of licorice, coffee and chocolate. Medium to full body with long bitter finish.

Pours a thick black with a flimsy but very tall light brown head. Smells more of chocolate than it tastes. Earthy hazelnut, chocolate and coffee with fruity undertones. Leaves a bit of a lingering bitterness, but worth it. Very drinkable and enjoyable and the flask bottle is a nice touch.

Pours very black with a brown creamy head. Sweet caramel, chocolate and dark cherry aroma. Mouthful is very sweet and thick, flavour of mocha, fruits. Sweet and bitter oatmeal finish.

Over here on the West Coast, we have a lot of hoppy beers. Thus, when I think stout beer, I think of lots of bitter. This was a lot smoother than what I am used to, and I enjoyed that. It had the coffee and chocolate, but with a gentle approach.

Dark amber color with a nice creamy head. Upon first sip I actually didn’t like it. I felt it was very bitter and tasted terrrible. Then I kept drinking. After I got used to the flavor, it is amazingly complex and tasty. It tasted like dark choclate with black coffee, mixed with burnt wood. It is very good. I would certantly suggest trying this beer if you enjoy strong bitter beer.

Bottle. Clear black colour, with a nice brown creamy head. Aroma of coffee, burned wood and a nice bitter nose in the end. Flavor is almost the same. Medium body, nice coffee bitter medium finish.

(Bottle) Pours black with lasting brown head. Full bodied with an oily mouthfeel. Roasted coffee and caramalized brown sugar notes. Slightly bitter, but nothing overpowering. I liked this stout quite a bit.

(Pretty but way too transparent) Bottle. Dark brown to pitch, large creamy dark brown head. Wonderful aroma, sweet and malty with chocolate, coffee, and molasses/raisins. Heavy roasted taste with healthy notes of smoke. Alternation between strong roasted bitterness and (almost) cloying sweetness. Delicious dark bitter chocolate. Smooth mouthfeel but a bit thin; finish is dry and bitter, aftertaste long and pleasant. Touch of oily lactose and some sour roast. The numerous descriptions of this as simplistic are not off-target, but they are irrelevant - this is just too tasty.
