This was one of three beers released at Bull McCabes in Durham on Friday, March 13 (Firkenteenth). It was a great event and what I thought to be a huge success. The stout easily went dry in less than 10 minutes, it was a great beer. I would hope they release another stout very similar to this next winter.
A: The beer pours big and black, with a dense dark oatmeal colored head. The head and lacing were very similar to Guiness. A very sexy beer.
S: This stout has an unbelievable chocolate aroma with strong notes of coffee in the background. It almost smells like a sweet mocha, very inviting.
T: Wow, all of the flavors combine in perfect harmony. The chocolate, coffee, and fresh raspberries pair very well. On first impressions, it tasted very similar to a mocha espresso with a raspberry finish. Later, a black & mild cigar came to mind.
M: Unfortunately this beer was on the lighter side of medium bodied. It definitely had a bitter and drying finish, but was extremely smooth and silky. A very impressive texture.
D: There were 5's, fives, and 5's all around the bar. It was a delicious beer that would compliment any dessert. Luckily we were sitting directly infront of all three casks so we were able to sample all the offerings of the day.
