Commercial Description:
August Schell Snow Storm is a limited edition beer produced each year for the Holiday Season. Snow Storm was created in 1994 as a way for our brewmaster to be creative in brewing different styles of beers. Each year brings a different beer, ranging from fruit flavored lagers to rich dark alts. The 2006 August Schell Snow Storm is a style rarely seen in the U.S., a London-style sweet stout. If you love coffee and chocolate, you’ll love our sweet stout. We used only the finest malts imported from Great Britain. Sure, it might cost a little more, but we’re certain you’ll agree it’s worth it.

The beer was near opaque dark brown with a moderate amount of brown foam. In the aroma and flavor I got burnt malt with a small amount of chocolate. Burnt malt finish.

Pours a very dark brown color with a light brown head which is quite foamy. Creamy taste with hints of chocolate and roasted malts. Not much hop flavor to speak of making this a very mild and drinkable beer.

Dark brown with a thin brown slowly fading lacy foamy topper. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and some sweet malt. Taste of coffee, chocolate, roasted malt. Creamy, tangy and somewhat sweet, flavors came out as time moved along.

22 oz. bomber as Schell Stout, although I had this back in 2006 as Snowstorm. Pours an almost opaque, dark brown body with red hues and a short-lasting brown head. Aroma of sweet malts, chocolate, and oats. Medium-bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. Flavors of lightly roasted malts, sweet malts, and cocoa along with hints of coffee and dark fruit. Coffee finish.

Pour was dark with a lightly chocolate smelling dark tan head. Beer was very smooth for being a sweet stout but it was enjoyable. I got flavors of light chocolate, sweet malt, and a little bit of oats. Seemed to be a well blended stout and I liked it. Not too much burnt character or hop bitterness. Again, well blended. If anything, it could use something to stick out a little more, anything. Would drink again.

Poured black with a dark brown head. Malty aroma. Taste was very subltle with some malt, coffee and cocoa. Very smooth, thick and creamy.
