From BeerDrop, canned in May?
Pours black with an inch of tan foam, retention is excellent, lacing is also excellent.
Smell is barrel rye, oatmeal, has sweet vinous notes, boozy.
Taste is oatmeal and rye barrel, noticeable vinous notes, not sure if it's meant to be tart. Boozy. Could be maybe infected?
Medium bodied, as is, not something that i would drink again.

12 oz can shared by tfontana. Thank you! Aroma is rye, rich roasted grain, mild oak. Flavor is deep and rich. Deep roasted grain, peat, caramel and ends nicely bone dry. Lots of layered malt. Nice mouthfeel and body. Real nice stout!

Can from Westmere Beverage Center, Albany. Opaque black, mild viscosity, ring of head, light lacing. Aroma is strong earthy, peaty malt, rye barrel, cacao nibs, saltine, late coffee. Well balanced. Taste is strong earthy, peaty malt and rye barrel like the aroma. Smooth, thin texture, soft carbonation, earthy finish as taste. Taste isn't as complex as aroma but a good deal of interest. Intriguing.
