The flagship of the O’Hara’s brand, this uniquely Irish stout brings one back to how Irish stouts used to taste. First brewed in 1999, it has since been awarded prestigious honours for its quality and authenticity. O’Hara’s Irish Stout has a robust roast flavour complemented by a full-bodied and smooth mouth feel. The generous addition of Fuggle hops lends a tart bitterness to the dry espresso-like finish.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours opaque jet black with a thick, creamy tan head. The aroma is smooth, rich roasted malt, dull smoke, umami, dark chocolate, cacao nibs and coffee grounds. The taste is initially crazy smooth and airy, rich roasted malt, then some bitterness, toasty, umami, cacao nibs, dark chocolate, coffee grounds, liquorice, charred, touch of tobacco and peppery spice with a roasty finish. Medium, fulsome body and massaging, velvety carbonation / mouth feel. Nitro works well with this. Not a huge amount of depth to it, but an enjoyable drinking experience nonetheless.

Can, small stable creamy head, black but not completely opaque colour, aroma of roasted notes and dark bread, flavor of chocolate and charred notes, quite dry but with a mellow bitterness and a light sweetness. A bit too smooth for my liking but still nice and drinkable.

Looks spot on. Black, with a thick creamy head. Smells of toasty malt. Taste has a dash of very dark chocolate, the malt as mentioned, a little coffee. It has a bit of a watery finish which is a shame but the body is okay and as a nitro it's very smooth. Fine, drinkable, sessionable, unremarkable.
