On draught at Frontier Brewing and Taproom.
Pours black with a nice head of tan foam. Lacing is not lacking.
Smells of dark chocolate, roasted malt, with a wild cherry zing.
Taste is even gooder. Chocolate is semi bitter, roasted malt brings a good dryness that I expect from a Foreign style, and the cherries have an adequate slight tartness presence.
Light mouthfeel but that's okay to me.

Draft. A- Leather, roasty, cocoa. A- Black color, dark liquid, off white head. T- Roasty, char. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, roasty finish. O- Didn't detect any cherry, very roasty and a lot of leather notes. Not bad but I've come to associate Foreign style stouts with a more dark fruit and slightly sweet palate. This was none of that.
