Indian Wells Blackout Stout

Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in Plano, TX. Pours a Nice looking deep, dark brown/black with tan head. Aroma is nice, malty and chocolate, faint coffee. Now, here comes the flavor......stale coffee, very dry, VERY watery taste, dry dark roast bitter, I think I taste chalk as well. Mouth feel is a VERY watery medium body with very high carbonation. Overall, I was disappointed....

Bottle from ericandersnavy. Blackout Stout and its not an imperial? Pours with a fading tan head over a deep brown body. Aroma of brown sugar, molasses, chocolate, and cocoa powder. Taste is thin, leathery with coffee grounds. Dry and thin mouthfeel.

Bottle courtesy of ericandersnavy. Dark brown pour. Think this one might have been served too cold. Scent has nice chocolate malts. Taste has some nice smoky flavorings. Interesting but slightly bland. I bet this improves greatly as it warms.

Some coffee in the aroma. This isn’t all that good, just a little bit of coffee, some weight, but mostly unimpressive.
