American Stout
Parsons North Brewing

 

 

I am trying this beer off the tapper at The Daily Growler in Powell, Ohio as part of a six sample flight. It poured a coffee cream opaque with no head and no lace. The scent had subtle coffee roast notes. The taste was in your face coffee explosion. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with subtle carbonation. Overall it is an ok beer.

 

From the tall boy can in a snifter. This nice stout pours a
sturdy brown tinged black with a modest head of off white
foam that sizzles to a thin ring with light lacing. Nose of dark
cocoa, light coffee, dark black strap molasses touches, and
moderate char. Flavors warm my heart with a solid presentation
of stoutly goodness; dark cocoa, moderate coffee notes, dark
molasses, touches of dark fruit and dark bread, faint raisin.
Nice mouth feel; full body, smooth, rich, coating, lightly
slick, light carbonation, and a rich finish that is subtly dry.

Overall, a true WOW brew from a great little new to me
brewery----4 pack bought at Savor Growl in Columbus.

Not sure if this is the same brew called Americano Stout
but time will hopefully tell.

Cheers
