Yes, a world class stout. Rich, thick and toasty. Lovely chocolate and coffee nose and a semisweet slightly dry finish with a fair bite, YUM!

On tap at Produce Row in Portland--A deep black-brown creamy body with a thick pluming head of whiteness. Soft, fluffy mouthfeel with a nutty, roasty, chalky, smooth malt body. A bitter, off-finishing palate feel that was good but not quite perfect. Still, quite injestable.

Pint - Two Mile Pub & Eatery - Olympia, WA
Aroma – Deep dark malt and creamy aroma.
Appearance – Dark brown color light head and clear sure if you can see in the dark.
Flavor – Closest thing to a Guinness I have ever had Severed with a hand pump this was tasty. Deep malts and light flavors.
Palate – Light very dry Mouthfeel.
Overall – This was a close cousin to Guinness. Nt bad it was dry for my liking but it was a good beer.

Black with a thick creamy tan head. Aroma is a roasted malts, black coffee with a smokey cigarette kind of thing going on too. A little sweetness is apparent as well. Flavor is sweet and roasty with a touch of nuts and butter. Creamy body. The finish is dry and bitter - like black coffee.
