good solid stout, light smooth body, palate, light on the finish. Watery mouthfeel but good cleanliness behind it.

Draught, on nitro, at the brewery, fresh.... a milky smooth, sweet stout... very fresh taste, and good... beatufiul beer with full frothy head, slow to materialize, much like a guinness in appearance, but much fresher and smoother....
good stuff....

Jul 2, 2009 Nitro at Barley’s, 6/27. This actually fell short for me. Everything looked the part, but the roasty flavor dissipated rather quickly. Very mild finish. Didn’t care for that.

Jun 13, 2009 Brown pour with a fluffy tan head, drippy lace. Light roast and chocolate malts on the nose. Thin-medium bodied. Creamy mouthfeel. Light roast, chocolate, and coffee. Pleasant hoppy finish. Overall a solid, easy drinking stout.

Apr 19, 2009 Nitro-tap. Very dark brown pour that starts out as a sea of creamy tan bubbles. Finally rounds out to a nice tan head on a used motor oil colored brew. Smell of some smoke, roast malt and hints of coffee and cocoa. Taste is a mellow melding of the aromas. Everything very blananced. Like a much improved version of Guiness. Pretty clean coffee, dry finish. Very smooth, very drinkable, but I thought the aromas and flavors were a bit more subdued than I would have liked. Pisgah makes good brews that are always worthy of trying.

Jan 15, 2009 Draft @ Barley’s (NC): Pretty much what you’d expect from a dry stout on nitro as far as the maltiness, creaminess, and smoothness. That being said, this one has a little added vanilla flavor and a pretty dry finish that reminds me of oatmeal.

Nov 21, 2008 Draft at Barley’s Taproom in Asheville, NC on 11/1//2008. Black pour with a big, brown, creamy head that is long lasting and leaves a sheeting lace. Coffee laced aroma with hints of chocolate and licorice. Smooth and creamy, full bodied and lightly carbonated. Dark chocolate sweetness that is soft and subtle, balanced nicely by a soft bitterness derived from roasted malt more than hops I believe. Very drinkable, borders on being a cream stout, as the bitterness is understated, but certainly not a detriment. Seems under appreciated by other raters, but I found it to be quite good.

May 4, 2008 Tap @ Barley’s Taproom. I can’t stand this beer. I’m a huge fan of Pisgah but this one just landed so far off the mark.
