For a beer brewed in San Marino, Black List has such a classic American Stout profile that I rarely find here in the US these days. It reminds me of the stouts I was drinking back in 2005 before Russian Imperials took over.

The pour from the bottle was intense with an incredibly thick head. Basically an unintentional mlĂ­ko pour! Head was a nice toasty tan and the beer is a very dark opaque brown with a red hue when you hold it up to the light. Very little on the nose.

Once you work your way past the head, this full bodied stout has a great bitter chocolate flavor with a pretty healthy dose of black coffee grinds. The finish is on the dry side, but in a very pleasant way.

I would say this was almost nostalgic for me. I love the heavy hitting barrel agreed stouts you get on the shelves these days, but it's been so long since I've had a beer that so fully embodies the classic American Stout profile I used to love so much. And again, so crazy that this beer comes from the only brewery in San Marino!! Really a great beer. Salute!
