Dark brown color but bright light shines through the center of the glass. Darker beige head which lasts throughout the tasting. Some rings and streaks for lace.
Strong cinnamon aroma. Also very sweet to the nose. No coffee or chocolate smells.
The flavor is dryer and less spicy. Here I get a bit of coffee from the black patent malt. Watery body, even thinner than the Irish dry stout versions. Good carbonation. Bitter coffee aftertaste.

Looks like an Irish Dry Stout, and tastes like an Irish Dry Stout.
Why is this called a "Double" Noir, when it really is like any other Irish Dry Stout. Clocking in at 4.50%, this beer is meant to be drank and forgotten.
Some light chocolate/ roast notes are there in the nose and in the mouth, but they are barely perceptible compared to most American craft offerings. There is something to be said about subtlety, and this beer is very creamy, and goes well with some nice fried pub foods, I think it really could benefit from a lot more flavor.

Appearance - beer pours very dark as it should be, nice tall tan head that is a solid 3 fingers. The head is very creamy and despite the cascading while pouring, its hard to tell carbonation.
Smell - solid hints of coffee and malts in this beer. You can really smell the roasted coffee beans.
Taste - Real deep beer that has a strong coffee presents. This beer has a decent bitterness at the end.
Mouthfeel - The beer gains a real creamy taste/feel during the mouthfeel. I am very impressed with the added carbonation and bitterness at the end.
Drinkability - This is a solid beer and one i would add to my apres-ski routine!
