With Foreign and Export style stouts being the style Americans would have been most familiar with, the American-Style stout naturally evolved to be a bit stronger than their European counterparts, with the modern twist of American hops to set them a step apart.

On tap at MBG Summer Festival. Poured black with a brown head. Dark chocolate notes with an under tone of cherry. Flavor consisted of dark notes and cherry notes but they combated each other rather than mixing well.

12oz bottle. Gusher upon opening. Black, with slight hint of deep red. Big foamy beige head. Smooth chocolate aroma, some very faint cherry. The taste is quite nice, tart and creamy at the same time. The cherry is quite tart and astringent, good but a touch artificially infused. Medium bodied, this is a beer I’d love to session. Not much roast, the cherry really balances all of that out. Underrated.

Light brown. Slight haze. The aroma shows a fair bit of pedio with maybe some roast notes. Tart, some cherryish notes. Watery towards the finish. Light roast. This one is too tart and the stank aroma is not cool at all.

Smells mildly like a dark beer, roasty and a tad sweet. There is also a slight soap perfume in there too. Initial impression is that it hides its alky content well for 6.5%. No head on the pour, it looks flat even tho it does have some hints of creamy carbonation on the tongue. Has gunk on the bottom of the bottle. Each slug is followed by a delayed cherry background reaction, it remains hidden until the finish takes place. Hide and seek cherry. Woody leather in there too. I liked this experience, normally I don’t care for these kinds of beers but I found this quite enjoyable. Finish is quite nice, no hints of alky is easily detected.
