Commercial Description:
Samuel Adams® Cream Stout is a true cream stout, balancing body and sweetness with the natural spiciness of grain and hand selected English hops. Our Brewers use generous portions of roasted chocolate and caramel malts as well as unroasted barley to impart a fullness of body, a roasty malt character and rich, creamy head. Its dark mahogany color make it almost as easy on the eyes as it is on the palate.

Dark, dark in color. Light head-looks like a freshly poured can of Pepsi, full of fizz. Aroma is almost all coffee, like a sweet mocha. Taste is similar, only much more bitter. Aftertaste is sweet, but you have to get through the coffee/roast bite. Not bad, but a little too bitter for my taste.

12 oz bottle. Clear, almost black with a nice brown head. Sweet nose, roasty malt and chocolate, plus a sweet, light milk caramel note. Sweet flavor, milk caramel and roasted malt, sweet chocolate and a neat, balancing bitterness to keep it honest. One of the most drinkable stouts I’ve encountered, I put away 3 without really noticing. Nice!

Pours ebony into a shaker. Dark mocha head recedes to coat surface. Roasted malt aromas. Dry, creamy and dusty. Like iced milk coffee out of a metal cup. Might be good camping.

Dark brown, reddish tints, thin cover of a light tan head. Coffee aromas, bitter roasted malts, sweet but more bitter roasted malt and smooth coffee flavors.

Dark brown with a creamy tanned head. Coffee malty aroma and a flavor with coffee and nuts. Not that great.

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 27 Sep 2008) Black colour with creamy, pale brown head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of creamy chocolate and cafe latte. Malty, roasted taste with milky chocolate, cream and a smooth finish with a balanced cocoa bittreness. Smooth and velvety mouthfeel. Tasty, easy to drink and very enjoyable.
