| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 25, 2005 Tap at the brewpub. Chestnut color with a rudy tinge when held to the light. 1/8th inch lid of tiny tan bubbles. Molasses and sorghum aromas with just a touch of toasted cornbread and butter. Standard tap stout feel. Vienna coffee flavors with mild cinnamon and sugar. A nice sweet coffee linger. To me this is more a traditional type porter. Sort of a mix of a twopenney and a mild, with just a touch of black malt. Lots of flavors working in this one. MIBRomeo (1965), Wisconsin, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 6, 2003 Draft, at Northwoods. A lighter taste than most stouts. The same black body, but lacking the “oily” mouthfeel. A little of the hoppiness shows through here. As I mentioned with their porter, this beer is hampered by being force carbonated to the same pressure as all the other beers, when it needs a lighter touch. <font color=red>This beer had been renamed “Dark Walnut Stout” on their menu card when I tasted it, but the commercial description is the same. My take-home bottle still has “Kelly’s Stout” on the label, and it’s “Kelly’s” on their web page, too.</font> badgerben (3605), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 22, 2005 Near-black color with no head. Roasted malt aroma and a little chocolate. The taste is about the same, but incredibly watery. These guys are close to brewing good beer, but just fall short. Skyview (4090), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 30, 2007 On tap at both the Chetek and Eau Claire, WI brewpubs. Pours a dark near opaque brown brew with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted hazelnuts, some dark chocolate, and a hint of licorice. Taste is lightly carbonated, some chocolate but a touch of sour malt. FInish is dry and flat. This brew has character more of a porter than a stout. May be Northwoods best product. brewblackhole (1385), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA
