Nice dry Irish stout, full of roasted malt and unsweetened chocolate and a touch of cascara, with lingering coffee notes and a bitter, dry finish. Good pint.

$3.85 single from Appalachian. No or printed date oddly. Pint glass at home. Stout on a 93 degree day while laying out on the porch. Oily, nearly black, matte, with brown highlights, indifferent cocoa head. Cocoa, marzipan, soft vanilla, mellow malt char nose, maybe s little smoke. Sweet char upfront, vanilla, extra toast, very minerally, saline, slight faux lactose sweetness, mellow bitterness all the way down. Off-dry leaning sweet, supple with slight acid & whatever abv. Crushes nice, still too pricey.

Draft at Fonta Flora. Pours a pitch black with a finger of beige head that lingers. Toasted malt, dark chocolate and light roasted coffee aromas. Palate is similar. Nice dry finish but balanced and feels light and drinkable.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is arguably coffee; not strong. Clearly dry tho. Thin - not quite medium body. Flavor is slightly acidic malt - not much else really - just a thin mildly acidic thing with the remnants of malt. Old keg?
