Brewery description says that this 4.4% Stout was brewed with Galena, Aramis, and Centennial hops, this stout has notes of roasted chocolate and coffee.
Poured from a 64 oz growler capped on 1/3/2014 into a Samuel Adams perfect pint glass.
L: Pours a deep brownish black color with a towering khaki colored head. The head slowly fades to a slight covering on my glass. Lacing is also very present.
S: A roasty smell is pretty much the only thing that I catch. The hops aren't picked up at all. Judging by the smell, I can tell that this beer is 4.4%.
T: Some nice roasted chocolate comes through. There's a tinge of bitter coffee at the end and I also pick up some bitterness from the hops. It's a bit thin which kind of takes away from the taste.
F: As I said, this is a thin beer, which is definitely what it's meant to be. Drinkability is off the charts and I could easily down this 64 oz growler in about an hour or so.
Overall: This is a nice drinking low ABV stout. The flavors are nice, but not as pronounced as I'd prefer. Still waiting for that brewery to perfect a potent tasting stout with a low ABV, but I'll take this Samuel Adams stout and enjoy it.
