Commercial Description:
Named after a local band, this Scottish style Stout is extra mean due to the hefty helping of roasted and black patent malts combined with a generous helping of North Western Cascade hops.

A thick, viscous, blacker-than-the-ace-of-spades oily stout. Crude oil with a nice, toasty brown head. When swirling the brew, the head coats the side of the glass, gradually sloughing off in tan sheets. Nose smells like a combination of burnt wood and cappucino. First flavor is very roasty, mainly with coffee-ish malts. Finish begins to sweeten with a caramel tone, lenthening out with the roastiness to taste a bit like a toasted marshmallow. Nicely creamy and full, darn good palate. Nice stout, surprising from this little brewery.

couldn’t find this in dunedin’s listings, almost tried to add it...egads! i’d have been shot at dawn!! anyway, thick, opaque, black color with a dark tan clingy head. slight roasted coffee nose, a bit metallic. very nice mouthfeel--nicely balanced. roasted chocolate, malty and only slightly bitter. dunedin is a pretty impressive brewery, imho.

I don’t really like stout’s, but this was fairly good. Chocolate flavor, not too thick or powerful.

As black as beers get with a thin tan foamy cover. Good, complex roasted peat-malt aroma reminiscent of some imperial stouts minus the alcohol. Body is robust and flavorful. This is a very respectable dry stout. I'd have to say Dunedin is the best brewery in Florida.

1st of my Stouts of November: Thanks Mabdoney for this beer! Deep black hue with initial large tan head which quickly reduced to a small top, good lace, some oily apperance as well. Aroma hinted of burnt malts, smoky, caramel, bittersweet chocolate, molasses, coffee, aromatic fruity and grassy hops. Interesting taste combination of burnt and sweet malt versus a piney and fruity hop. Both play well off each other but still could use a bit more sublime complexity. The mouthfeel has an oily component but is also very carbonated. The finish hints of smoke and underlying bitterness. The finishing feel is a bit chalky and thinner bodied than expected. Overall this brew has some great potential, the taste needs to back up the aroma and have a more lush mouthfeel. Still, you could do much worse than this stout for sure, very drinkable.
