Shmaltz Brewing Company
Formerly brewed at Olde Saratoga Brewing (Mendocino Brewing Co.)
Style: Stout
San Francisco, California USA

Overall, very typical and boring. Nothing exclusive or complex, it just tastes like a stout, and it is one of those instances where you are waiting to finish so you can try something else of quality. Deep and dark in the color, with a light brown head, very musky and oily, with a very unspeakable finish and extremely dry.

Dark brown color, small tan head, thin bodied, hardly any aroma, not a very satisfying stout.

A very mellow stout. Although opaque, brown black, and displaying a light brown head, this stout is quite mellow. The nose was of chocolate and malt - a little sweet - and the mouth tasted of bittersweet chocolate, nuts, and caramel. Very little sharpness and not very dry. Not much of the "bitterness" distinctive of excessive use of Black Patent Malt, just enough for the dark color; very slight roastiness, almost imperceptible - perhaps a porter?

This is a stout...not a bad stout, not a great stout...but goddamn, it's a stout!

Has a nice black appearance with a sweet chocalately aroma, after that this beer goes down hill.This is definately a S***T beer but the tou should be replaced with some other letters.S**T

The bottle i got was called Messiah Bold, i assume its the stout? and i use the stout term loosley,real loosley. Big ass tan head. Pretty, clear mahogany color. Nose is malty slightly sour. Medium body. Some laceing left behind. Slight maltiness and some roastiness. Not alot to talk about. Kind of a lite stout. Finish is dry and thin. Probably overrated it.

mellow nose of light chocolate and malty bitterness. thin sweet molasses, mild malt bitterness, hops are there. finish is long and syrupy. too light, too porterish. light roast

Very dark, slight appearance ding for the hairy arpits on the label. A little fruit, some hazelnut, lots of coffee bitterness. Medium bodied. Tangy with long coffee finish. Pretty good.
