Like a clear night lit by stars, this silky Belgian-inspired stout balances light notes of fruit and sweetness with roasty malt. Inspired by late evenings spent around a crackling campfire, North Sky is brewed to merge lightness and darkness into a super-sippable stout.

Refrigerated pint can poured into a glass. Black with beige head. Aroma is roasted malt, medium body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is roasted malt and dry finish.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark brown very close to black color with a two finger khaki foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: roasted malts, some Belgian sugars and Belgian yeasty spice; earthy sweet tones, treacle, dark fruits, milk chocolate, dark chocolate and a touch of coffee
Flavor: wraps up the previously noted aromas to a fine sweet to roasty quality; finishes semi-dry, earthy and dark fruity
Texture: medium bodied, great sipper; light smoothness but ample dryness hitting the tongue fairly nice
Overall: I see it's classified as a Belgian stout and well, I guess that's feasible; however, I wouldn't go as far to say this is fully a true heavy hitter of the Belgian class. Though, I believe I would come back to this.

Can at home shared with Laura. Dark brown to black color, full sized beige head. Aroma and flavor are malts, roasty, dark malts, some chocolate in there, pretty nice. Decent to medium body, soft to average carbonation. Alright.
