Fresh growler from Village Beer Merchant in Buffalo. Huge roast aroma, dominating yet inviting. Pitch black, decent sized brownish head. Tons of roast in taste along with some nice sweet chocolate notes. Great soft carbonation. alcohol not present. A fantastic stout.

a great choice, i am constantly impressed by sixpoint. a nice offering and oh so smooth. decent and in proportion, a little sweet and a little bitter. roasted and malt give the beer the flavor and body and the amount of hops is a nice departure for a stout.

At Redbones, on tap. Opaque black with 1/2 inch light tan head and rings of lacing. Rich coffee and cocoa nose. Slightly tinny but inviting. Smoth, creamy, like an oatmeal stout in mouthfeel, which is excellent on this beer. Lovely body. No spikes. Totally smooth. Robust malt but never tastes burnt. Great stout&#033;

Appearance: Pours a dark brown body with a medium-sized, light beige head. Smell: Roasted grain aroma with notes of licorice and chocolate sauce. Taste: Chocolatey flavor with a taste of burnt grain and a reasonable amount of malty sweetness. More of the licorice. Medium hop bitterness. Roasty, lingering finish with a last taste of unsweetened chocolate. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-low carbonation. Drinkability: Diesel Stout is a Decent Stout. Thanks for sharing the growler, Matt&#033;

Growler shared by the BeerCellar. Pours dark black, thin light tan head. Sweet aroma. Hints of band-aid, lots of chocolate. Flavors of licorice, big chocolate. Finishes dry. light-medium bodied. Well enjoyed. Thanks for the treat, Matt.
