New Beer Distributors, NY 330ml ($4.50): At least the US bottles don’t come in the idiotic green glass, but I feel like the brown is not much better, because this might be infected. Anyway, it pours a dark brown with a light brown head. Aroma is funky chocolate and malts. Taste is slightly sour. Otherwise, it is like a light stout. Tastes like a Jolly Pumpkin stout, except that I think that this one was done by accident. And with the completion of this beer I still have never actually tried a CCM beer the way it is supposed to taste. Still, I gotta say that I don’t really mind the sourness.

330 ml bottle then into an English pint. The bottle was black; not green like photo. From notes 4/7/2012. Very dark brown with a huge foamy beige/tan head which had spotty light lace. Weak retention. Sweet roasted nose with a touch of lactose. Taste has sweet malts with light chocolate. However, also an odd fruit / sourness. Does finish dry. I haven’t had much Spanish beer in recent years so… hard to get a good base-line for other brews from Spain. This dry stout was ok.

Bottle courtesy of Jay at Beer Run and shared at the 17th Richmond Ratebeer Gathering, 1/28/12. Pours a hazy copper color with a large frothy head. Decent head retention. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malts, tart and dusty notes and cherries. The taste is roasted malts, coffee, chocolate and a chalky finish. Medium bodied, very high carbonation. Nice beer.

Pour is a black with a large tan head. Aroma is an ok roasted malt/ coffee combo. Flavor is is about the same. Some roasted malt and coffee with a finishing sourness. It’s ok I guess and I’ve had worse.

Bottle from Pizza Port Bottle Shop. Pours very black with a huge foamy beige/tan head that clings. Smells sweet like a milk stout. Medium body with foamy carbonation. It seems a bit unsweet. Flavor is chocolate and burnt malt, though fairly smooth. It is pretty dry and pretty bitter. It is in fact delicious.
