Can - a rather needy vibe to this package, from the "pretend-it's-a-different-brewer" thing to the misaligned "you should check out these zines, fellow appreciator of what we think is still youth culture" text on the can. All very cringeworthy, but that's their thing. They flex even as they approach the ambit of suburban Melbourne bargain bins. Very dark brown with a beige head that fades to a cm and never quite disappears. Aroma of strong bread, pears, licorice, coriander, pepper, coffee. Medium bodied, lowish carbonation. Bread, quite punchy spices, (rye?), roast, coffee. Not really much of the licorice of the aroma. Firm bitterness. Reminded me a bit Old Engine Oil. Another pretty good stout from Stone. Perhaps at 7.2% ABV, it's a little strong for what it offers, but good. --- Beer merged from original tick of Arrogant Bastard Black Metallic Stout on 12 Jun 2019 at 16:06 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5.

Can to glass after train ride to San Juan Capistrano. Dark cola brown pour with a thin cream-colored head. Aroma is roasted malt with some grassy hops. Taste is much more hoppy - with some pine resin hops alongside medium grainy roasted malt. Not bad. Palate a bit thin but good.

Certainly an interesting one. Roast, pine and even a hint of licorice. Dark brown pour with great and lacing. Bitter end with some caramel and resin. Tap at Richmond brewery.

Draft pour at Stone Brewing Richmond. Poured an opaque dark cola color with a small, light tan head. Aroma was malt roast, some light bakers chocolate. Flavor was mild sweetness, some light dry character. Malt roast. Mild sweetness. Actually quite pleasant.
