Share of a bottle. Thanks, Timmy! Dark brown pour, with a small, tan head. The aroma is weak chocolate, and a note or cough syrup - maybe grape or cherry. Very sweet flavor, with no hop bitterness. Light body, watery, and weak. Overall, this is a poor attempt at a stout. Needs a better malt profile, and any hop profile at all.

Bottle of Black Beer Stout Lager from emart in Seoul. Just 1040 won, it pours a dark brown with a tan head. It has a strong roast malt coffee-ish aroma but the flavor is mostly lager hay/grass followed by a bit of caramel & roast dark malt flavor. It is ok but more of a dark lager. It is by no means a stout, very grassy & a twist top which I hadn’t seen in awhile.

Bottle. Pours clear dark reddish black with a small fizzy off white head that dissipates immediately. Aroma is dark roasted malts and a bit of coffee and molasses. Flavor about the same, medium sweet with very little bitterness. Quite watery in the mouth, with a bit of an odd aftertaste.

33cl bottle, courtesy of Joes. Almost black colored beer with a small beige head. Smell malts, earth, ash, cigar and piss. Taste malts, ash, earth, yeast, dough. Not good at all imo. Low carbo, low body.

Very thin head, very black body. Oh boy - another macro stout. It has the aroma of barley and grass in a swampland. The flavour is a murkey mess of sweet barley buried under an ocean of water. They completely dropped the ball on this stout.

0.33l can. A Korean stout you say huh? Well, let's try: Pours a dark brown - near black body with a small quickly fading beige head. Sweet and caramely on the aroma, some hints of thin cardboard and cold coffee. It has a soft to average carbonation level and a thin watery mouthfeel. Roasted and watered down flavors here. Some cold coffee, caramel, cardboard, metal and it has a OK hoppy bitterness. Ends with a burned flavor and a both sweet and dry finish and aftertaste. Not horrible to drink - especially after only drinking pale lagers for almost a week!
