Starr Hill’s Dark Starr Stout has won more national and international awards than any other Dry Irish Stout in the country. Brewed with roasted barley, and with hints of coffee and dark chocolate, it packs a robust taste into a surprisingly light body. This signature brew pours like velvet and drinks like a slice of grandma’s pumpernickel bread.

NOTE: my original rating was a 4.5 overall. That was from before Starr Hill moved out of Charlottesville and the quality dropped tremendously. Old review is below: Draft at Blue Light, Charlottesville, VA. Black, thick, and only a dusting of a head. Aromas of roasted nutty malts, caramel, coffee, and chocolates. Flavor is striking: light chocolates, nuttiness, caramel, and toffee. Finishes nice and smooth. Reminds me a tiny bit of the Buckeye Vanilla Porter, without the vanilla.
