Like all good Irish stouts, Windbreaker Weather is a complementary pairing of a rich, chocolatey roast on the palate and a light body built for maximum drinkability. This delicious stout is the perfect companion for long sessions at the pub and lively banter with your mates. Sláinte!

Poured from 16oz can into a dimpled mug. Canned 3/5/26.
Appearance: basically black but with some highlights of brown around the edges when held up to the light. Head is a thick finger of frothy dark-tan foam.
Smell: there’s a little bit of caramel, which reads as sweet, and a bit of roast, which reads as try. Besides that the aroma is very … well, malt-ey. It’s understated, and balanced, and I like it.
Taste: there’s not too much sweetness to the malt, and a fair amount of roastiness. At first I thought there was a bit too much bitterness in the mix, but on further review I think not. It’s a tasty and well-balanced example of the style.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.
Overall: a good example of a dry stout. It really strikes a good balance and at 4.6%, you can drink this all night.
