On a day when the former Oils’ frontman performed the exceedingly rare double Gonski... Bottle, 13C. Black with a tan head that settles to an inch. Aroma is gently but deeply roasty with coffee, chocolate and cherries, some licorice, grapefruit and pepper. Oily, low carbonation. Sweeter and more straightforward than suggested by the aroma, with caramel and mocha. Bitterness is quite firm and the beer dries out a bit towards the end. Just a touch of licorice, hints of citrus. After the sweetness the finish is pleasantly clean.

22/07/2011 Brasserie 4:20 (bottle). Degustazione al Baird Beer Festival. Bellissimo color tonaca di frate, scuro, con lieve cappello di schiuma color cappuccino, poco persistente. Al naso è molto interessante, note tostate, cioccolato in evidenza, una punta di caffè e spezie. In bocca è molto ben equilibrata, dolciastra, con una punta amarognola sul finale, più cioccolato che caffè. Al palato è meravigliosamente vellutata, con una carbonazione molto bassa. Forse manca un po’ di corpo e risulta un po’ corta. Ma per essere una stout da 6,3% è comunque un bel prodotto.

Draught at Baird Naka-Meguro Taproom. Very dark brown, small head. Soy sauce and chocolate strikes first. Salty with solid ful packed body. Lots of hop bitterness that sets in early and lasts long. Plenty of oil and licorive to go with it. Fairly drinkable despite immense bitterness.

Draught at the Nakameguro Taproom. Black with a milkshake-like head. Sweetish aroma, creamy, chocolate and a bit of coffee. Very sweet flavor. Chocolate and some café au lait. Nice, slightly woody, but the body is thin and the carbonation too strong.

Black with a hefty tan head. Roasted malts, some coffee, cocoa, some dark fruit, and mulch. Flavor is full of dark roasted malts, coffee, cocoa, a bit oily, and the earthy mulch shows up for a brief instant. Full bodied and proper stout carbonation. A very nice stout.

Thanks to daijokey for bringing this to JoeMcphee’s place for CaptainCougar come to NY gathering. Completely black color. Aroma is strong roast with choclate hints. A very espresso feel all around. Taste is a bit watery with roast. Otherwise very average stout. This really isn’t a "foreign" stout, more like a regular stout.
