Bills 2 x 4 Stout

Brewed by Bills Tavern and Brewhouse
Style: Stout
Cannon Beach, Oregon USA

I think this beer is clear, but it’s too dark to tell. Strong roast malt aroma. Heavy body with a sour finish that spoils an otherwise nice stout.

Pint at the brewpub - Mild aroma of dark roasted malts, hops and chocolate. Flavor is more intense, soy, black licorice, chocolate, dark roasted malts, hops but is lactic. Palate is sticky. It’s big and flavorful but just a touch off the mark.

Had this on tap at Bill’s Tavern in Cannon Beach, OR. Colour... dark purply garnet colour. Nose... BBQ sauce, hops and some malt. Palate... biting hops up front and soft palate, thin mouth feel, then some malt, smoke, meat, charcoal and more BBQ sauce. Seems more like a lightly smoked porter, than a stout!

Draught @ the brewpub. Pours a black color with a small off-white head. Has a roasted malty and slightly hoppy aroma with some hints of chocolate. Roasted malty chocolate flavor. Has a roasted malty chocolate finish.

On tap at Bill’s. Deep brown, not quite opaque. Small brown head. Nice small roasty aroma. Nice mildly roasted flavor with a clean finish.

On tap at Bills in CB, OR--Poured a deep brown-black body with a small tan head. Decent carbonation and bright boozy nose. Rich, chewy and chocolaty finish. Very delectable.

Good color and flavor. A little watery for mouth feel, and carbonation bubbles a little too big. More alcohol content than many stouts I’ve tried. Good overall.

Very dark brown. Aroma of harsh alcohols and grains. This is way too young to be served to the public. Light nuts and chocolate underneath of this rawness. Slick finish...not enough carbonation to pull the body along. Again, way too young.
