Dunedin Leonard Croons Old Mean Stout

Tap @ brewery. Pours black, beige head. Aroma roasted malts, light bitter hops. Taste, malty, roasted, some thin coffee and chocolate. Finish is lightly bitter with some caramel and roast.

Tap @ brewery. A "Scottish Stout", whatever that is. Essentially an American stout with a big winey roast character and a basic pale malt backing. Roasty aroma. A bit too much roasty twang for my taste.

Bottle: Poured a black brown with a medium beige color head. The aroma is sweet malts. Taste is sorta raosted malts but had a bitter hoppiness to it

From draft at Stogies and Stouts 2008, Dunedin Brewery : Pours dark brown, with a big time head. Nose is very strong, some malts, and a weird veggy smell i cant but my finger on. Taste is ok, some roasted malts and a little hoppyness in the middle. Medium to thick body, with a oily feel.

Draught sample at Stogies and Stouts 2008. Will update rating asap when my head stops pounding.

Bottles shared at fordest’s tasting. Flavors of some chocolate and roasted burnt malts. Not the best tasting stout but still pretty good.

22 oz bottle shared with Ibrew2or3. Nice dark pour with a decent head. Aromas of chcolate and roasted malts. Flavors fell off a bit with touches of wet cardboard, but it had aged for a while, Dave told us. Overall, not too bad.

Tried at fordest’s tasting with ibrew2or3, fordest, padrefan98, toncatcher, and others. ibrew2or3 brought this from Florida. I think I was told this bottle was a few years old. Dark brown, small to no head. Small bubbles. Mild aroma. I like the way this beer has become. I image it may have been more harsh fresh, and has mellowed roastiness now.
