On-draught @ the brewery. $2.50 per 4oz pour.

"Sputnik stout with vanilla + mint."

Additive-laden deliciousness. Sure, the spearmint is artificial as hell, but it plays. Sputnik's core notes are eclipsed by the additives, but who cares? Sweet, with no trace of Sputnik's coffee flavour.

Very smooth. Wet. Not unrefreshing, actually. Perfectly carbonated. Medium-bodied.

It's admittedly simple and shallow, but I can't help but dig its likeable wintry flavour profile and easy drinkability. Definitely one of ABW's better efforts, but far from a great expression of the style.

High B- (3.50) / WORTHY
