473ml can. Pours an opaque black with a small, creamy, short lived, brown head that laces. Sweet aroma of lightly roasted malt, chocolate and a hint of mint. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, chocolate, vanilla, caramel, oats and coffee in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with a sticky, oily texture and soft carbonation. Tasty and enjoyable. A great dessert beer.

Big Irish cream vibe for sure. Caramel and cream. A hint of mint. Black pour with ok head. Didn't think this would work but it's decent. Bittersweet finish. Can.

Can from Jak's Parkcrest, Burnaby
Black with beautiful brown creamy head. Mild aroma, monotonous, just some roasted malt. It's full bodied and the mouthfeel is very smooth; mild level of residual sweetness; dominated by the roasted malt flavour, with soft lactose, and a bit of roasted nuts. Solid brew. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Screaming Banshee Irish Cream Stout on 28 Dec 2013 at 00:47 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7. Original review text: Draught at Rogue Kitchen & Wetbar (Convention Centre), Vancouver
Black color with small beige head. Mild aroma and flavor of roasted malts, not aggressive, with a lactose-like back sweetness that balances it; correct bitterness. Hint of chocolate.
Wouldn’t suit for the purists of Stouts, but the soft sweetness makes it more drinkable to me.

16oz @ Alex's garage. Appearance: very dark brown with a dark beige head. Aroma: roasted malts, coffee, some chocolate, and subtle fruity character. Taste: moderately dry and sour with a lot of chocolate and some coffee. Overall: very nice for the straight non-BA imperial stout.

Nice creamy beige foam on dark black body, smells of perfect Irish cream, the liqueur replicated most excellently. Flavour is nice smooth chocolate, soft Irish cream syrup, a little mellow for the abv. There's full lingering creaminess. This is wonderful, a standout.

Jet black with a rich light brown head. Minty chocolate. Dark minty chocolate and some bitter sweetness in the finish. Not bad.

650mL bottle, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out Irish cream, light vanilla and some cocoa. Flavour is pure cream, with light vanilla and sole whiskey. Creamy mouthfeel with a light vanilla finish. Meh.

Bouteille de 650ml du Canada Craft Club. Traditional chocolate cake and coffee for aroma. Medium brown head on black and opaque liquid. Chocolate cake, brownies, caramel and sponge toffee are the main flavors of this creamy sweet stout. Roasted malts are not agressive giving this beer a high level of drinkability. Pleasant beer. L’olfactif présente des effluves de gateau au chocolat et également des traces de café fort. La torréfaction est assez présente et lui donne un nez assez traditionnel. Une bonne mousse brune couronne ce liquide noir et opaque. Caramel et chocolat introduisent la palette des saveurs. Des notes de gateau au chocolat, brownies, caramel, tire éponge. Belle palette. Gustatif supérieur à l’olfactif. En bouche, c’est rond, c’est crémeux, sucré, mais pas trop. L’amertume de torréfaction n’est pas trop prononcée. Bonne buvabilité. Plaisante.

Dark brown. The aroma is very sweet, sugary, like a b-grade foreign stout. Very sweet, with obvious flavouring... Irish Cream flavouring. Wished I’d seen that or I wouldn’t have ordered this. Gimmick beer, ws;sp. Yeah...the words "Irish" and "cream" are both normal in the stout context...I never thought anyone would put them together to mean they dumped Irish cream into a stout. Awful, awful idea.
