Can from Northfield IGA. Cloudy, murky brown with fizzy, ephemeral head, tons of sparkle, a dozen or so large globs of yeast being thrown into suspension by the carbonation, no lace. Aroma is strong roasted malt, dark chocolate, hint of coffee, background earthy tartness. Taste is strong tart fruit, late mild roast and chocolate very late hint of coffee. Smooth, frothy texture, tartness that zings the lips, tongue and front of mouth, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Wow, what went wrong here? Aroma is pretty damn good but that's it. Was this left out in 80-degree weather? Did the yeast go crazy in the can? I have a saying--"it's hard to fuck up a stout"--this is one of the rare exceptions that proves the rule. Train wreck.

16 oz can from the brewery. Thanks Tom. Deep brown in color. Flavor is mild chocolate, a little bit of roast and a mild lingering sourness in the finish. A tartness that doesn’t belong in the style. A little tweaking to the recipe and this will be fine
