Dry Irish Stout is a great session beer, with roasted barley and dark chocolate aromas, and a silky smooth finish. Served on Nitro.

Almost Exploded Can - Popped Upwards, but luckily not Punctured. Upon opening a bunch of carbonation, head and dark coloured beer shot out and got over the walls and sink, but luckily I was prepared and didn't loose a bunch of product. De ep dark brown coloured body with a slightly hazy, opaque dark brown and almost black glow, all with a nice three centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat nicely Aroma of deep and roasted malts with a lot of robust and rich caramelised sweetness and even some burnt notes and a touch of molasses, with a lot of coffee also noticeable here and some lighter lactose and even some elements of brine and smoke in the nose. Medium to Full-bodied; Rich robust burnt and roasted malts dominate with a lot of flavours and range and showing a fairly smooth sweetness and alcohol burn (which is noticeable) and some more pronounced coffee, specialty grains and even lactose here than I was expecting. Aftertaste shows a lot of bitterness, with the coffee and molasses notes by far the strongest with a little bit of residual sugars and graininess coming through at the end. Overall, a nice option for the style, and while this is rich and full of flavour, it's still relatively easy-drinking and low-ish in terms of alcohol and especially sweetness. I sampled this sixteen ounce pint-sized can purchased from 49th State Brewery itself in Denali Park, Alaska on 25-June-2021 for US$3,49, purchased while with my family in Alaska this summer, sampled on the train from Washington to New York to head right back to Alaska, on 04-October-2021

Draft @ 49th State: Poured a thick black with a tan colored head. Aroma was malty. Taste is very nice roasted malt, but a smooth dry drinker. Nitro makes this fantastic.
