This brew poured a medium head of finely sized creamy dark brown bubbles and a pitch black opaque body. It has a nice strong malt aroma and a strong stout flavor. It starts off with a slight stout bite, but finishes smoothly. The coffee and chocolate notes are there but different than in most stouts. Somewhat more subdued but still present. This brew goes down too easy when compared to other stouts. Not as strong but still well balanced. I wonder how Hotstuff will rate it?

WITHOUT A DOUBT, THE WORST BEER I'VE EVER HAD. Stay away from this. Maybe it was someone's idea of a joke at the CUB brewery Christmas party to fill up a longy with Kikkoman Soy Sauce because to me, that's what this stuff tastes like. BEWARE OF THIS CRAP!

Sheaf stout...Another of the beers I cut my teeth on - finally coming around to rate it. All around good stout, not very complex, but has everything a decent stout needs. Dark in color with a translucent pour. Cola like head that dissapates to a ring of medium sized bubbles. Toasty aroma, little burnt, touch of melon/bell-pepper. Semi sweet with a roast aftertaste. Bumping this one up on the overall score for old-times sake.

Bought a case of longies of this stuff to a party recently and everyone hacked into it. What's the go?

Probably CUB's best beer, Pours a ecent thick head when it wants to. Nice Roasted malty flavour. Almost too sweet for my likings, but just saves itself. It's a semi-decent session beer.

Impressive robust harsh taste to it. Woody has a taste like a wood stove burning. Decent Sweet. Thick increadible head that is pillowy.

A little too sweet for my taste. This one is a tough one for many who want to go round the world at bars.

Very good, well done....but not overly original. The head was thin beige, somewhat disappointing, but after that, all of the stout characteristics were represented, nutty aroma; coffee, burnt woodiness, sweet chocolate, and spices all came together in this medium bodied beer for a very crisp, yet somehow boring taste.
