Samoa
Crooked Run Fermentation

 

Had on tap at Frisco Taphouse in Crofton. Pours pitch black with a tan head. Aroma and flavor feature dark roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, coconut, and caramel. Lots of flavor, well-made for the style.

Poured hard from a tall can into a snifter glass, forming a couple fingers of brown head that slowly faded to some lacing. Deep brown body, effectively opaque. Smell is a bit roasty, milk stout. Taste follows, pretty much a basic milk stout despite the coconut and cacao nib add ins. There's hints of coconut, but nothing too crazy. Might be similar tasting to the Samoa cookie, but I don't enjoy those too much. Medium bodied with light carbonation after the pour. Perfectly fine milk stout, but doesn't match the description I feel.
