Aug 29, 2007 Off the tap. Creamy head and a straight black color. Roasted chocolate aroma. Different from the other Irish stouts mostly by not being bitter at all, but rather being almost sweet with a bunch of chocolate taste. Really smooth as well. My favorite of the three most common Irish stouts.

Aug 29, 2007 like all of the stouts in cans with the gimmick widgets, this is pretty darn watery... it is only slightly more tasty than the Guinness widget draught

Aug 25, 2007 nice stout. velvety indeed (though not overly so). better suited for hot weather as it is more refreshing and has less of an edge. a bit roasty and coffee like with just a touch of chocolate taste in there.

Aug 25, 2007 On tap @ Johnny Foley’s in SF, almost black with a nice creamy head. Smooth, coffe and malt. Not as bitter as Guinness, so it was easier to drink. Clean finish. Nice offering.

Aug 24, 2007 16 ounce can in pint glass. Dark brown/black color with dense half inch lasting head and lace. Aroma of roasted chocolate and, surprisingly, apples. Flavors and texture of low fat chocolate milk with a touch of fruitiness like raisins. Creamy mouthfeel, very low carbonation, somewhat watery. There’s a reason they make it like this; so you can drink twenty-three of them in a night at the pub.

Aug 17, 2007 Murphy’s Irish Stout (16 oz. can) has the standard pitch black appearance. The head seems a little whiter than a Guinness’, but lasts just as long. The aroma was very roasted and nutty, but the taste seemed fairly milky to me. I guess that could be interpreted as "watered down," but I think it’s just the effect of the widget. The mouthfeel is only slightly creamy, not a thick as you’d expect from the look of the beer. At any rate, Murphy’s is incredibly easy to knock down, even if a little on the bland side.
