L- Pours a jet black stout with a healthy two fingered dark tan head.
S- Toasted malts, roasted nut, peanut butter, sweet organic maple syrup, coffee, toffee and chocolate. Very nice and nuggety chocolatey aroma.
T- Slight peanut butter, slight coffee and chocolate, a bit sour. Not a bad flavor at all, but nothing truly rewarding. Just refreshing.
F- Creamy milk stout mouthfeel. Not too bad.
O- This was a good milk stout that I enjoyed very much. Nothing exceptional but it was a fine beer that I could see myself getting again. Good enough for a try.

Attractive dark color with red gold highlights at the edges.
Light scent of roasted malt with an underlying sweetness.
Nice flavor on entry, dark malt, a bit of cocoa, some ripe figs in the background.
Full creamy texture with balancing carbonation.
Overall this is a pleasant, undemanding Porter/Stout sort of brew with some depth and a balanced richness. Good flavor that appeals to the resident Guinness fan who says it's "smooth" and smells like "good malt" for whatever that's worth. This from a guy who drinks Guinness exclusively unless I shove something else in his hand.

Very light. Not to sweet, not to thick. Good dessert beer for warmer weather. Wouldn't call this a winter beer by any means. Goes down smooth as silk.

This beer is just "fine." Not much sweetness is lent by the lactose sugar used, though it is a very smooth brew. Fine if you want a light-bodied, no-nonsense stout for summer or warmer weather, but not really anything to seek out either.
