sukman69 (14), Canada Jan 13, 2006 Old Testies tastes just like it sounds...horrible. I mean, naming the beer after the male genitalia just adds insult to injury. This was a nice mild choco-flower brew that tasted like I threw up in my mug. I like my Testies where I can handle them...IN MY PANTS! Schroppfy (1810), Ohio, USA Sep 29, 2002 Well, it’s about as right on for a Dry Stout as you can get. A bit thin, as it should be I think, nitroed, so creamy longlasting head, very dark, medium coffee and choc. tones. Good. I’m just not a dry stout fan, but I sure had a good time drinking this with the Summit’s gang. TheBeerCollector (548), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 28, 2002 Draft- A great dry stout. Smooth and flavorful with a hint of toasted malt and chocolate. aracauna (2357), Georgia, USA Mar 21, 2002 Not a bad stout. I even got to judge it objectively since at the time I didn’t realize it was brewed by Rogue. Definite coffee and dark chocolate tones although the beer is a little thin for a stout. Definitely worth the try, especially since you get to keep the pint.
