4 oz draft. Dry roasted malt nose. Perfect rendition of a dry stout. Coffee grounds, mild chocolate, and a very dry roasted finish. Class I can spot on the style

355ml can, drank in Laguna Hills on 29th June 2024 while on holiday at my daughters place. Black body, lightly tanned head. Roasted/toasted malts rule the roost with this Irish style Stout, a little thin mouthfeel wise but tasty enough.

Medium brown, thin head. Toasty, nutty aroma. Light body, pretty dry. Lacks sweetness. Ok but comes across a bit light.

Tap at Societe. One of my favorite Stouts of the trip. Dry, sweet, roasty. Super easy medium body. Pleasant chocolate tones.

GABF 2015. Black beer. Dry stout. Surprisingly rich and full flavor. Dry for sure, roasted grain, a good earthy character and much better than most of its style, which doesn’t surprise me from this brewery.
