Cqsk at GBBF 25. Dark and glossy. Frothy foamy beige head. Aroma has chocolate and malts with a berry edge. Flavourwise we have coffee and charcoal bitterness with a light spur berry edge. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Decent.

Draught @ the pub. Dark brown with creamy beige head, faint roasted malt aroma, low carbonation, bitter roasted malt taste, thin body, medium finish. A bit weak and watery for a stout.

Pours a near black from a tap. Aroma is mostly masked by the head. Why is everything brewed here so sweet? Okay beer.

On tap at the brewpub. Close to black in the glass, topped by a dense, two-finger beige head. The aroma is quite roasted, close to bonfire, with some chocolate and coffee grit. It’s dry on the palate, still it feels sort of milk stout sweet. Roasted bitterness, some hops, prunes and a good dash of burnt malts. Very smooth on the palate, medium body. Long burnt finish. Quite lovely. 151609

Draught @ Gritty McDuff’s Brew Pub, Portland, ME
Pours dark reddish brown with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of roasted malt, caramel, chocolate, lactose sugar and hint of ash. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter with a long chocolate, coffee and caramel finish. Body is medium, texture is thin to oily, carbonation is soft.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a dark brown almost black colored body with a lumpy tan four finger head. The head begins to fade after a minute or two. The lacing is spotty lacing throughout.
The smell was coffee, with a hint of smoky chocolate. There is some light cinnamon and pepper.
The taste was bitter through the coffee and becomes balanced with some light milk chocolate.
On the palate, it sat at/about a medium, very smooth, no aftertaste, dry finish, some carbonation is felt on the tongue.
Overall, this is an excellent choice for an Irish Dry Stout, probably one of the better beers by Gritty’s.
