Bottle (Cellars Bentleigh). Very dark brown with a cm of light tan head that doesn't last too long. Aroma of mocha, singed caramel, roast. Creamy texture, full bodied. Singed notes verge on smoky, but no corresponding depth to the roast. Fairly sweet so it needs the moderate bitterness at the end. Pretty good.

11.2 or 12oz bottle at the November 2015 DC Gathering. Poured a medium brown color, light a porter perhaps. Aroma was light dry dark chocolate, some light cocoa. Flavor was dry, perhaps not Super Dry, but dry chocolate herbal notes. Pretty tasty.

12oz bottle pours an inky black with some creamy, beige head. Nose has molasses, black pepper, malt, licorice, a little smokey. Flavor balances burnt caramel, earthy bread, molasses, toast, chocolate. Dry finish.

Bottle from Tanakaya. Poured into a shaker pint. Pours a clear black with modest tan head that dissipates fairly quickly. First aromas are roasted coffee and milk chocolate with a touch of prune. As it warms up the fruit really stands out along with some sour milk and molasses. Taste is sweet and fruity with molasses there as well. Carbonation was a little soft and the body a little too thin, but still pretty great for a macro as bad as Asahi. The price is phenomenal. Not a bad stout at all.

Bottle picked up from Yamaya in Kyoto before heading to Tadg’s, enjoyed after a temple dinner in Koyasan. Black with two fingers of light tan head. Aromas of caramel, toffee, dark fruit, roast, subtle funk/earthiness. Tastes of caramel, toffee, earthy, dark chocolate, light roast. Medium-light body with a dry finish. Delicious.

The elusive Asahi Stout but when you finally find it, it’s not so pricey just 240 yen. Bottle from CBB with an old school label. A very dark brown pour with a nice brown head with decent staying power but no lacing. The aroma was a creamy caramel, like a candy over subtle chocolate. It is surprisingly good, very sweet milk caramel with hints of licorice. All in all a surprisingly good stout at a fantastic price. Why on earth is this not more widely available???
