"Gumbo stout with creole spices."

The spices are definitely there. Finishes salty and roux-like to its detriment...the base beer isn't robust enough, bending easily to the whims of the spice blend. More chocolate malt and base dark malt is needed to give this the backbone it needs for the spices to make it interesting. As-is, the weak base beer is just an empty shell for the spice blend to fill, and it comes off shallow and simple as a result.

A gimmick beer that isn't much of a stout and doesn't really deliver on its premise...not that I want my beer to taste like actual gumbo per se to begin with...
