Pailhead (2299), Allen Park, Michigan, USA Jun 22, 2005 On tap: Very nice coffee, roasted grain, and light chocolate aroma. Dark brown, virtually black, with a nice tan head with very good retention. Very nice lacing. Lots of coffee and roasted grain up front. Decent hopped finish that blends very well. Maybe a tad thin for a stout. 11026 (1886), USA May 6, 2005 Nitro tap. Black with a tan, dense nitro head. Roasty aroma with hints of coffee. Dense coffee flavor. Medium bodied and smooth. Modest carbonation. Nice bitterness towards the finish with a bit of a sharp bite from the rye. A touch drying. Good.
