Three Floyds Black Sun Stout

Brewed by Three Floyds Brewing Company
Style: Dry Stout
Munster, Indiana USA

Bottle courtesy Guy411. Pours an absurd milky brown with a thin cocoa-colored head. Aroma is reminiscent of chocolate milk with some roastiness and a lightly fruity note. Rich flavors of chocolate and iced coffee with lesser notes of cherries and fruity hops. Doesn’t make any sense that it would be classified as a dry stout, but regardless of style this tastes really good. Medium-bodied with a tiny bit of chalkiness and a dry finish.

Poured from 22 oz., dark, murky brown with a slight reddish hue and minimal tan head. Nose was mostly chocolate a bit hoppy, mostly citrus, cherry. Reminded me of a chocolate cherry cola. Medium body with a slightly oily texture. Nice finish but not exceptionally dry. Better than the Moloko.

22oz bottle shared by Guy411. Murky dark brown color with a small brown head. Chocolate milk with grapefruit and orange hops in the aroma, with the malt showing lots of creamy chocolate. The flavor is hoppy with some spice and grapefruit, a good dose of chocolate malt flavors and roasty bitterness. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Interesting combo of hops and chocolate. Far from a dry stout, but an interesting American stout.

Bottle. Pours a black body with a tan coffee head. Big roast y coffee aroma with some pine hoppiness. Cream y and roast y despite the low abv. A strong roasted finish that also has dark chocolate and caramel notes. Great brew.

Black with a dense brown head that leaves amazing lazing behind. Aroma is green hops typical of Three Floyds here accompanied by fudgey caramell and light roasted malts. Flavour is extremely green hoppy and flavourfull for the ABV with a sturdy fudge/caramell foundation. Lightly roasted stout flavours coming through but its still all about the hops so its definitely a brew you want to drink fresh. Mouthfeel is smooth which adds to the drinkability, yum.

Pours dark brown with a disappearing brown head. The aroma is hoppy and chocolaty. Milk chocolate, caramel, pineapple, and grapefruit stand out. As for the flavor, the bottle says it all; vanilla, cherry, coffee, chocolate, with some black licorice on the palate. Bitter citrus notes in the background, grapefruit and orange peel. This does not fit the description of a dry stout in my opinion. It tastes like dark lord light to me. Very good.

Pours a black color with a small tan head. Has a rosted malty choclate aroma with some hoppy hints. Sweetish roasted malty chocolate flavor with some bitterness. Has a sweet roasted malty chocolate finish.

22 oz bottle. Pours super dark brown with a bubbly tan head that fizzes out to nothing rather quickly. Aroma is dark roasted grains, boozy vanilla and a light smoky wood scent. The flavor is very bitter coffee roast with some light sweet chocolate flavors. Medium to full body with a lively carbonation and a chalky dry finish. This is good but I’m thinking this is an old bottle or possible slightly infected due to the short lived head, strange mouth feel and the somewhat acidic bite. Will definitely have to re-rate a fresh one sometime.
