Oct 16, 2008 In short: An ultra boring light stout
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Very dark brown body topped by a long-lasting large beige head
In long: Basic dark malts, watery chocolate flavour, light airy body, some hazelnuts, hops cruelly missing in action, not tasty at all. This is in the league of a commercial nitro “black beer” like Guiness and others. A very awkward beer, Mill Street Cumbersome Stout.

Sep 18, 2008 At Brewpub. Nitro pour. Black with off-white head. Aroma of coffee, cocoa, vanilla. Really roasty with a creamy nitro mouthfeel. Shame about the nitro because it kills a lot of the roastiness that is obviously there but it’s still smooth and solid and quaffable and retains its gentle licorice sweetness.

Aug 10, 2008 Objectively speaking:
A simple and surprisingly hoppy session stout.
I like:
Pleasant chocolatey roastiness. Dry flavour profile growing a certain hazelnut skin tang. Milky, gently lactic acidity yet feeling clean all along.
I dislike:
Highly carbonated for a stout, giving it a light metallic touch. Not particularly complex nor memorable.

Jul 21, 2008 nitro at brewery. creamy and fine, with some decent and muted roasted coffee/chocolate flavors. This beer is not as nice as the coffee porter, and its very hard not to compare the two. The flavors here are not as profound or memorable, and the porter is your best bet.

Jul 20, 2008 Opaque black pour iwth a foamy tan head. Nice thick head at that. Bready thick taste, lots of roasted flavours (roasted nuts, roasted caramel, etc). Very dry finish. A good stout, but I’m not a huge fan of stouts.

Jul 15, 2008 Bu sur place en fut (12 oz), le 12/7/08. Brune ruby extra foncée, moyen collet. Arome de réglisse chocolaté, un peu cafiné. Goût de café amère, un peu de chocolat sucré, arrièr goût amère. Un autre stout sec agréable!

Jun 22, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Pours dark-brownish black with a thick dark beige head that has very good retention. This is a benchmark dry stout. Thick silky palate with a strong roasted coffee flavor that matches the serious roasted malt aroma. I’m surprised this is indicated here as a seasonal autumn beer, as I had it in the spring and the bartender said it is always on tap.

Apr 24, 2008 On tap at Kickoff. Black with a creamy tan head. Bubbles go down right after pouring. Aroma has mustiness and roasted malts. Cigarettes and coffee. Slight booze quality. Flavour is somewhat light. Burnt flavours dominate. The hops are apparent as well. Dry, coffee aftertaste. Slightly watery.
