Deep dark black with a tan head leaving rings of lace. Light dry grain aromas. Roasted malt and chocolate flavors followed by a light chocolate covered fruit finish.

Taste 2/9 Bottle. Black with tan top. Aroma: Deep roast and toasted malts (chocolate and coffee). Taste: Silky and a little dry with chocolates and a little raisin. Thin to medium bodied. Good, nothing outstanding.

very dark body with dark tan head. First sip brings me back to London at Youngs. The roasted malt gives it a very nice taste and the low carbonation makes it so easy to drink. A good example of a good English Stout.

Pours deep brown with tan, lacy head. Aroma of carmel and toasted malts. Thick and creamy texture with light carbonation. Slightly sweet caramel flavor with bitter chocolate finish.

This is a thick, chewy oatmeal stout. A very roasty ale, with slight caramel, chocolate and toffee highlights. Very well rounded, lowly carbonated and hopped lightly, the oats really thicken this beer and add a hint of flavor to the palate.

Bottle 16.9 oz from Patty for Christmas. Pours a very dark brown with tan head. Aroma of coffee and oats. tastes of dark chocolate, and a little bit of oatmeal. Has a decent body to it.

Bottle, Pours a dark deep brown that is just faintly lighter at the edges with a tight tall tan head. Aroma is of toasted nuts and dusty carpet. There is some sweet vinegar notes poking around as well. The body is light on the pallate and feels very thin and silky. A strong contrast to the frothy heavy head. Flavors of toasted nuts, weak caramel malts and notes of watery dark fruit, plums maybe. Certainly a beer for certain occasions, but not one that you’ll find in my fridge regularly.
