Dry stout brewed with whole-leaf hops, English specialty malts & Maine-grown barley, fermented colder than normal with our house yeast for a dry, extremely easy drinking experience.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown in the pour but leaves more of a black color in the glass with a lasting finger's worth of tan foamy head head and that took it's time to dissipate then leave a little bit of lace
Aroma: dark chocolate, cocoa powder, black coffee, earthy sweetness, light notes of char and a touch of toast
Flavor: leans towards the dark chocolate & cocoa powder with the black coffee tones; finishes semi-dry through the coffee, and cocoa powder notes
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, smooth with appropriate dryness, good carb level
Overall: nicely done Irish dry stout worth coming back to.

Sample at the Roost. Thin watery black, beige head. Nose is OK, toast and roast, all malts, light cake. Flavor is chewy with malt and toasted bread. Thin though and feels forgotten. Dry finish with some lurking acid.

Canned 11/12/24, drunk 12/5/24. Dark. Small, light tan head to spotty cover. Ash, a bit of peanut or bean. Low roast, lots of mineral. Roasty, hoppy, maybe a touch of bean or peanut. Soft, neutral texture, not watery, with good malt depth for its size/style. Still gettin some beany DMS or something like that...love the texture though.
