Robust, smoky, woodsy. Complexity from roasted barley. Dry finish.
For those who seek a rich, full-bodied beer to savor slowly, there’s nothing like a good traditional stout. The creamy head, dark color and rich body combine for a uniquely satisfying drinking experience. In our Big Stone Stout, we achieve a complex flavor by using a large variety of malts, East Kent Goldings hops, and London ale yeast. This combination creates a traditional flavor with smokey and woody overtones. Perceived as malty-rich at first, it finishes richly roasty and dry.

tap at the brewpub - Pours very dark brown and has a roast malt and chocolate aroma. It tastes of that roast malt with some hints of coffee and chocolate. It’s medium bodied. Solid stout.

Tap. Smoky chocolate malt aroma. Dark brown color with moderate head. Lightly sweet and smoky chocolate malt and mildly bitter herbal hops flavor. Light body. Very nice.

Whoa - where'd this come from. If I didn't know any better I'd say the folks at BBC are getting better at what they do. This is big, rich, and roasty. Full of flavor and still a good match for food.
