Commercial Description:
Having to paddle back up the Ohio River was one reason why early settlers hardly ever returned to their homes in the East. The great sternwheelers opened up trade in the Ohio Valley and made travel a bit more enjoyable. Our SternWheeler Stout is a smooth, easy drinking dark stout with hints of chocolate and toffee.

Excellent stout. So smooth that it seems like a hybrid sweet stout and Irish dry stout. Rick, the brewer, does a fine job with all the B.H. beers and this one is no exception. Rich, coffee and chocolate flavors are evident. Just the right amount of bitterness. Very warming, firm and enjoyable.

Super strong coffee and chocolate flavor. Stronger bite than most. Tan warm chocolaty head and lacing.

Tasted at the Barrelhouse Brewing Company Microbrew Fest on November 9. This was my other favorite offering from Barrelhouse. Poured thick and dark. Sweet chocolate aroma. Flavor scored well with coffee, chocolate and toffee. This is the one to get on my next visit.

Nothing too special here. I think the stout might have been served off of nitrogen which might have deadened the flavors of chocolate and coffee a bit.
