By the looks and feel of it, I think this was actually on-tap, and not even nitro-tap...

A - Deep ruby, nearly black, but close to 0 head with no lacing.

S/T - Definitely creamy taste and smell, just like the description. Not much beyond that though. A little roast...

M - This is where it really lost some points. Straight watery. Nearly no carbonation, none of that rich nitro-tap mouthfeel. I know this style's supposed to be on the light side, but this is unacceptable.

O - The thin/watery mouthfeel killed it, and just a tad one dimensional.

Nice and black but no head so just an average rating on appearance. It has a roasty malty aroma and the taste to match. Mouthfeel is a little light and is very drinkable. Its good as a session beer if you like to drink stouts as session beers but its not a spectacular stout by any measure.

The beer pours a dark black color with a thick, creamy tan head that slowly fades to lacing. The aroma is good. It has a dry, earthy black malt scent that appears quite thin, much like your typical Irish stout. The taste is good also. It has a creamy black malt flavor that's easy drinking and thin in the finish. It's a nice earthy feel with little chocolate malt influence. The mouthfeel is fine. It is a full bodied beer with adequate carbonation. This is a standard Irish stout. It's nothing spectacular, but it's a smooth, easy drinking beer.

Reviewed on 8/9/08. Nitro tap at the brewpub. Pours a dark brown with the nitro head. Aroma is roasty? Hard to smell of course. Flavor of roasted malt, bitter hops. Creamy palate of course. Decent stout. For this one, it probably helps that it's on nitro.

This beer poured very dark nearly opaque with a very slight tan head. It had distant smells of nuts and malts. The taste was pleasant, extremeley similiar to guniness minus the incredible head, pretty much your run of the mill irish dry stout imo. The mouthfeel was pleasant and carbonation was not a problem @ all. A very drinkable beer, seems this one would classify like Guiness as a borderline light beer.

This beer was pretty interesting to me. It poured a dark brown body with a small, tan head with soldi retention and amazing lacing through the finish. The smell was sweet with subtle hints of toffee. Interestingly, it had a wintergreen aftertaste that reminded me a little bit of Pepto Bismol, but I thought it was pretty good and nice and refreshing. The mouthfeel was pretty light, but it was very smooth. The smoothness of the mouthfeel and the sweet, refreshing taste make it a solid beer I would definitely order again.
