Commercial Description:
Dark-colored, robust, full-bodied malt flavor. This smooth and drinkable ale is served on a nitrogen tap. The Devil's Thumb Stout goes well with any of our aged steaks. Or consider pairing with a chocolate dessert.

On tap with Nitro: Not a big fan, I think it makes the beer seem flat. Pours a dark color that is heavy and has a tan froathy head. Descent not as good as I hoped though.

tap at the brewpub - Pours black with a very long lasting tan head. I drank it last from the sampler after nearly an hour and it was still hanging on. The nitro tap means very fine carbonation and a smooth palate. Roast chocolate malt is the main aroma and it’s joined in the flavor by some good hops balance that lingers pleasantly in the finish. It’s a very good stout.

Tap @ Walnut: Poured a brown black color. It wasn’t opaque. Creamy tan head. The aroma was of dull roast and chocolate. Some coffee notes. The flavor was a fight between coffee and chocolate with coffee fully taking on midway through. Light body on a nitro pour.

Nitro Tap. Awesome heavy malty profile with hints of chocolate. A lingering heavy dark brown head. A smooth and creamy stout.
