Green Flash Stout (Double Stout)

Brewed by Green Flash Brewing Co.
Style: Stout
Vista, California USA

~ Purchased this 22 oz bomber from Shoreline Beverage in Huntington, NY. This double stout pours jet black with a small tan head that fades away into minimal lacing. For the aroma, all the usual suspects make an appearance with the addition of some light floral hops. Taste follows the nose with roasted malts, chocolate, coffee, and a touch of hops. The finish is smooth and slightly bitter. Good stuff! ~

Botella. Pitch black colour. Lovely roasty malty alco chocolate aroma. Great mouthfeel. The flavour has a very pleasant roasty maltiness, with chocolate, dark fruits and coffee. Roasty malty fionish with chocolate and some coffee. Yum indeed!

Black with big, creamy brown head / Grassy nose of roast barley / Medium to full body, somewhat chewy, with big charred malts and good hop balance on the dry finish / Flavors of cigar box, dark roast coffee, dandelions, lemon, and semisweet chocolate / Outstanding in a hoppy style.

Bottle. Pitch black with a creamy tan head. Aroma is roasty, caramel, vanilla qith a good punch of coffee and chocolate. Rich malty and roasty flavour with notes of chocolate, coffee and vanilla.

Chocolate cake aroma. Chewy-chocolate and roastiness. Smooth and complex. Deep black.

brown, small light brown head. aroma of roasted stuff, nuts, faint caramel. flavor is licorice, roasted malts, super well composed, flavorfull. fantastic.

Right up there with the really good stouts. Thick medium brown head. Coffee and chocolate notes that are probably just very well roasted barley. Nice finish. Very pleasant overall.

Pours through the air dark but picking up deep burgandy highlites. It settles in the glass dark, burgandy covered brown with thick, lacey brown head. Thick gooey nose with tarrish roast, bittersweet chocolate, licorice, cookie dough, chocolate covered orange peel, booze, and with a touch of lactic tang. Powdery mouthfeel leaves a dusty feeling in the mough...flavors are soft, chocolatey like powdered cocoa, with notes of coffee. Bitterness in the finish is strong and the alcohol not exactly completely hidden and certainly warming. The powdery mouthfeel is a little distracting and makes the overall experience feel dirty. The flavors unfortunately don’t mimic the refineness of the nose and feel flimsy and about to fall away...the alcohol is somewhat hot and peppery, There’s also a growing garbage/rotting vegetable taste coming out. I opened the bottle around cellar temps, but im sticking it in the freezer for a few with flavors like that.
