How do you take a winter staple and make it better?...by adding another. We stuffed our flagship stout full of candy cane and peppermints. A minty nose spills into each sip, perfectly blending with the chocolate notes and full body of this flavorful stout. (previously known as Peppermint Stiletto Stout).

Peppermint, chocolate malt, and straw aroma. Black with moderate brown head. Mildly sweet peppermint, chocolate malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body. Very nice.

Week old can A: Poured a full inch of lasting tan foam and sludgy dark brown body. S: I get dark chocolate and that green artificial mint note. T: Strong, dry mint notes overwhelm. Hot doublemint more than peppermint. Chocolate is there but is completely dominated by mint. M: Active carbonation, light medium body and a dry crisp finish. O: With the dirty appearance, candy-like smell and medicine-y taste, there's little to recommend about this. Maybe better with some age.
