Fat Bear Stout is carefully crafted using traditional European stout recipes. The full bodied brew is characterized by smooth roasty flavors and malty aromas from brown, roasted and two row malts. The combinations of pure water from the ancient springs of Saratoga, spiced with English Target and American Cascade hops varieties, makes Fat Bear a complex yet easy drinking stout.

From old tasting notes. Opaque brown color topped by a huge tan head. Smooth chocolatey malt aroma. Rich roasted malt flavor. More chocolate

This bear has so much carbonation that my mouth can hardly contain the foam generated with each sip, which is fitting considering the aftertaste kind of reminds me of dishwashing liquid. The initial taste isn't that bad, and the appearance is alright, so this brew isn't horrible. But it certainly isn't good either.

hmm, guess i'll have to try it again. had a bottle and didnt like it. WAY TOO MUCH carbonation. thin body, and not complex enough. just your basic amercan stout. roasty but not spectacular in any way. I didnt even want to finish this one.
