pours black with off white head.
aroma and taste, add a good dose of fruits, mostly apples/pears with some roasted malts.
Not too sure about the apple flavor to be the intended direction of this stout, just did not seem to fit the style.
With that being said, the beer remained drinkable and did not show signs of oxidation. dkachur (2361), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA

clear dark brown, wispy beige head,
roasted and dark chocolate aroma,
dry chocolate flavor, touch of roasted malt adds to the dryness and creates a bitter edge, a touch of dark caramel adds complexity without adding any sweetness, lingering bitter finish,
