"a dry Irish Stout we did for a Celtic Fest that we sponsor here in California that was simply poured via nitro." Draft only.

"Knightro – Celtic Festival Beer
A fully Nitrogenated beer designed as our take on the creamy dry stouts of Ireland with a decidedly Sierra Nevada twist. Knightro is black in color but surprisingly light in body with rich caramel and chocolate malty flavors. It has a creamy mouthfeel and gentle carbonation from the use of a high percentage of Nitrogen instead of the typical carbon dioxide."

Smooth and silky on account of the nitro. Flavors are far from bold.

a great stout, and peculiarly dry, maybe the driest ive ever had. matte black in color with a tall and creamy looking nitro head. the beer has a yeasty nose, a little tannic, and bitter from the malt. the flavor is the same, interesting to have a beer so thin in body that is a stout on nitro, i kind of dig it, makes it drinkable forever and really unique. earthy base, not super bitter, mild really, and with a hint of red richness to it. i like the yeast flavor in it, irish in nature, and i like how slick it is going down. finish is bone dry and gone on the swallow. one of the more unique sierra nevada beers, a treat to get to try this at left hands nitro fest, a real nice bring from these guys. one of the best beers at the event honestly, memorable.
