On tap at Sudwerk. Aroma is mild and just roasty flavor is basically the same. Palate is very dry. Overall pretty good, but I like it in the 3 best friends brew better.

A very dark, dry stout. It didn’t have the most flavor of other stouts I’ve had, but Sudwerk always has a great brew on tap.

2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 DYCSoccer17 (2734) - Woodland, California, USA - JUN 30, 2007
On tap at the brewpub in late June 2007. 0.3 L sample. Roasted, toasted, mildly metallic and hoppy aroma present. Lightly peppery and a bit of smokiness is in there, too. An interesting enough aroma. Moderately opaque dark brown-mahogany colored body with a frothy light tan head and nice lacing present. Starts a bit grainy and cereal-like. Lightly roasted, choco, and burnt flavors are present in the middle. Becomes quite hoppy with plenty of "C" hops in the finish. Kind of thin-bodied and overly hoppy. Just seems kind of lacking. I think this is too hoppy to fit the "Dry Stout" classification.
