Finite Madness
Revision Brewing Company

Poured from a 16 ounce can into a snifter.

Look- Black, visible particulate at the edges, medium brown frothy head, average head retention, above average lacing.

Smell- Toasted oats, coffee, cocoa.

Taste- Toasted oats, cocoa.

Feel- Between medium and full body, mildly mouth coating, moderate bitterness, slightly below average carbonation.

Overall- Much more bitter than I expected. Flavor was very toasted oat forward with some subtle cocoa.

This one pours a fairly dark black color, with a small head, and a little bit of lacing.

This smells like roasted malt, clean bitterness, dark chocolate, and dark fruit.

This is a really solid, bang on take on the style - it's very roasty, but not overly bitter, with some semi-sweet dark chocolate, licorice, dark fruit, and some herbal flavors.

This is medium bodied, creamy, roasty, and very drinkable, with very little booziness.

I like this one quite a bit - I hadn't heard of this brewery prior, and I really haven't heard of many Nevada breweries anyway.

 

 

16oz can pours out much like motor oil; viscous and thick and opaque with a small dark khaki head. Lots of roasty, dry, and ashy malt on the nose and palate, reminiscent of smoke; woody and earthy. Mild dark fruitiness as well as coffee, both fresh ground and espresso. Solid black malt all the way around, with minor notes of bitter chocolate and licorice. Mild alcohol booze. Pretty nice unbarreled offering from Revision.

 

Bomber from Boise Co-op. Black, tar colored pour, thin foamy beige cap. Aroma is chocolate, marshmallows, charred wood. Taste features mild sweetness, more chocolate, ashy notes, followed by a soft glowing warmth. Mild bitterness, smooth.

Finite Madness pours jet black with a big and bold 2-finger dark tan head that fades into a frothy top on the beer.The smell is hot. It's a big whiff of alcohol with a dark roast, bitter chocolate and licorice aroma on the nose.Taste is rich and viscous, as described on the bottle, big boozy on the first sip with a very big roasty note, reminding me of a camp fire. Some dark chocolates with a bit of coffee and some licorice across the palette. A bit bigger then I like but a solid offering from Revision, not know for their dark beers.

 

Thick, dark roasty smelling beer. Tons of chocolate, roasted malt, chocolate and molasses. Sweet with some coffee, chocolate, molasses and a nice char bitterness. Solid stout.

Pours jet black with a full finger creamy-like mocha colored head that settles slowly into a frothy mass.Bitter chocolate,black licorice,and deep roast in the nose,not a whole lot of sweetness detected.Deep char and roast on the palate with underlying chocolate,this is a big roasty dry hopped up impy stout wich is actually what I anticipated from this brewery.If you like hoppy heavily roasted big stouts this is for you.

On tap at the brewery and from a bottle.Pours dark as night with a mocha head leaving lots of lacing . Nose is dark and roasty with a hint of hops. Taste follows with lots of toasty malt and some hop bitterness. Really tasty Imperial Stout.
