Secret Stairs is our signature Boston Stout. Bold and balanced; satisfying with a substantial body, but not syrupy or sweet. Roasted malt provides a nutty, earthy backdrop to bitter cocoa and little hints of caramel. Smooth mouthfeel with a drying sensation on the finish. We brew Secret Stairs to highlight the unique physical connection between Summer Street and A Street. We raise a pint of Secret Stairs to The Fort Pointer; the neighborhood’s favorite protagonist!

Pours a near black from a can. Rich roasty aroma, toasted brown bread, fruity esters (dark cherry) and chocolate. Similar flavors. Well balanced, initial sweetness turns dry, not too big. Very good beer.

04-07-21. Black, with a light tan head. Smell is traditional roasty, light coffee. Creamy mouthfeel, but a bit thin in the aftertaste. Sharp carbonation. Taste is malty and roasty, with some good coffee, and a bitter finish. Bit metallic. Oldschool.

Can at a tasting with the boys. Medium body, medium carbonation. Mostly roasty, moderate burnt coffeeish maltiness. Clean good stout, slightly harsh, light astringency present. Good but not great.
