Twisted Pine Cream Style Stout

Brewed by Twisted Pine Brewing
Style: Stout
Boulder, Colorado USA

Draft at the brewpub. A pitch black beer with a big brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with strong notes of chocolate as well as notes of roasted malt and coffee. The flavor is sweet malty with strongnotes of chocolate as well as lighter notes of roasted malt and bread, leading to a dry and slightly roasted finish where the chocolate note lingers.

Average aroma and appearance. Nice flavor but too light. Mouthfeel was thin and watery. Hardly any aftertaste.

22oz sampled while in Boulder, CO. Nice impressive pour, inky black and clearly quite a substantial body. Minimal head, but not a big deal for this style. The nose was heavy on the chocolate malts, very lush but without the roasts other reviews have mentioned. Big chewy body, but I felt that the flavor profile was a bit one-dimensional - even for a cream stout I want just a trace more bitterness.

Rich coffee, toffee, and dark chocolate nose. Black with a faint red hue. Creamy head that stays. Bittersweet chocolate, with some smokiness. At first seems full bodied, but finishes a little thin. Decent Stout, the huge bittersweet chocolate characteristics are interesting.

When you think of a ho-hum watery stout, you think of Twisted Pine Cream Style Stout. Nothing great here. Very little on the nose, pours a pretty nice dark color with a head that doesn’t last long. Coffee and toasted malt flavors come through. Pretty sweet and very watery on the palate. Just "meh". Not a very inspiring beer, but not terrible.

Had this beer on 9/4/1999. Color is deep black, carbonation looks good with nice head. Aroma is a rich toasted malt scent. Taste is rich, sweet, and toasted. Starting with a rich body it goes down sweet. The finish is a bit different for a stout the sweetness turns to a toasted flavor and this becomes a slightly burnt, bitter taste.

22oz Bomber
One of the best stouts that I have ever had. The flavors where flawless. Loved the dark chcolate and the deep coffee and toffee flavors to follow. This was tihck and just right in all aspects. Loved this beer. Great Stuff.

22oz bomber-Dark black with a dark roasted coffee aroma and a decent tan head. Taste of dark roasted malt, coffee, and a little caramel with chocolate.. Great tasting stout.
