Poured into a mug, the appearance was a black color with a thin wisp of a white head that dissipated into oblivion leaving no lace.
The aroma triggers dark chocolate, light coffee bean, roasted nuts, and a touch of cream.
The flavor blends all of these previously mentioned aromas to boot. Dry rugged roasty aftertaste to finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Mild carbonation. ABV feels fine. Dry in the feel.
Overall, good Irish dry stout that I could have again.

Tap @Beer Works Canal Street
Dark opaque ruby/black color. Nice creamy beige head. Hints of cocoa and caramel in the nose. Light to medium bodied. Coffeish, tobacco, almost too harsh, but certainly tastier than Guinness.

Clear dark red brown beer, creamy beige head, unstable, little adhesive. Aroma: mocha, sweet malts, earthy, smoke, tobacco. MF: soft to no carbon, medium body, creamy texture. Taste: sour berries, mocha, bit of cola, coffee. Aftertaste: citrus sour, coffee bitter. Misses some malty body to lift everything up a bit.

On tap at the source in Lowell. Pours a solid black with a creamy frothy white head that sticks around forever. Smells of lightly roasted grains and a slight earthy aroma. Lackluster aroma, maybe they were going for a Guinness clone? Taste is slightly acridic with mild roasted grains and an earthy herbal taste to it. Light body medium carbonation level, slick acridic mouthfeel. I love me a good stout but this one misses on so many levels. The roast is hard to find its bitter and acridic like burnt coffee. Even Guinness would have been better.

Tap @ the Fenway location. Deep black with creamy, foamy white head. A nice roasted malt smell. Flavor of coffee, roasted malt, and light sweetness. Nice dry finish. A good example of the style but nothing you have to make a road trip for. Standard.
