Rich malt and coffee flavors highlight this milky stout with a frothy head. This is so good you may want to wake up to it in the morning * just do not drive to work after drinking this stout.

Too metallic and thin. Won't buy again. A severely bad batch? The best Korean brewery is The Booth Brewery.

Looks typical of a stout. Slight mocha head that’s huge then recedes rather quickly. Taste is on par with Guinness draft. Mouthfeel is as well. Slightly higher abv in this one though. I would swear this were a Guinness in a blind taste test. Good stuff.

I believe I selected the correct beer to rate. Some confusion because I ordered an IPA and got a stout. I'm going to roll with it. The beer tastes good and a stout is one of my favorite styles. I think this craft beer is distributed to a lot of different places that can put their name on it. Gives a bar their own house beer. It is a good mocha stout. I pick up on the toasted character right away. It's dark with a silky mouth feel. Not to bitter. It is a good example of a typical stout.

Poured on tap at Post Alley Gastro Tavern in Seoul. Pure black with a creamy tan head. Super smooth and roasty. character but a bit watery in the finish. If this was creamier it would be near perfect. Spot-on with the coffee flavor. Really nice!

If there is a better beer in Korea, I haven't come across it! Rich coffee flavor with just the right balance. On tap at Golondrina in Gangneung.
