Commercial Description:
Chicory Stout is a rich, dark beer made with a touch of roasted chicory, organic Mexican coffee, St. John's Wort, and licorice root. It is brewed with roast barley, crystal malt and oats and hopped just right with Glacier hops. We use fair trade Organic Mexican Coatepec beans roasted to our specifications by Notting Hill Coffee Roastery in Lewes, DE.

Dark almost black color with a medium head. Smell of coffee and malt. Is this a Porter? :) Good coffee taste, and now that I read the description, I can taste the licorice. Slightly thin texture however a thick malt finish.

Thick tan head with a virtually black body. Malty smell with roasty things in there. And something I couldn’t put my finger on in both the aroma and in the taste, probably the chicory. Has a taste of roasted malts with some smokiness. Coffee taste is there. Slightly bitter. Good, but not really great.

Poured from a bottle. Poured a deep brown color with a nice tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, smoke, and a hint of coffee and licorice. Unique roasted flavor right off the bat, different than most stouts. I suppose that is probably the chicory. As it warms the coffee comes out nicely in the finish. Smooth and creamy. Easy to drink. I like it because it takes a somewhat different approach to the common stout.

Pours a dark brown with a light brown head. Smells like the hardwood bar countertop that it sits on. Tastes like an old wooden cabinet but really really awesome with coffee poured all over it. Wouldn’t mind having this one again.

Pours a thick black with a nice tan head. Aroma has plenty of burnt, robust grains along with a hint of bitter hops. Flavor is more of the same, some espresso flavors come out as well. A pretty good beer, though it doesn’t compare to the World Wide Stout.

Draft at the Blind Tiger, supposedly a new recipe for this beer. Dark brown pour, opaque, with tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, and lactic acid. The flavor is the same, not too impressive. I don’t think I like stouts anymore because the nice flavors seem to fade away leaving you with nothing but sour milk.
