This collaboration with Woodfin, NC's Zillicoah Beer Co, brewed with all North Carolina malt from Riverbend and Epiphany, doesn’t lack for body or satisfying roasty chocolate notes while finishing while finishing super-dry due to a finer crush while milling and an abundance of roast malts.

Milk chocolate malt and dry hay aroma. Black with nice brown head. Lightly sweet smoky coffee, chocolate malt, and mildly bitter dry grass flavor. Very light body. Decent, just light.

Can. Dark brown color bright tan head. Aroma of unsweetened cocoa. Taste is earthy cocoa and espresso grounds dry finish. Decent

Dry-as-a-bone stout, heavy on the roast and coffee notes, backed up by anise, bakers chocolate, and an undertone reminiscent of frankincense. The dryness is intriguing--rare these days to have a stout this resolutely opposed to leaning sweet--but the lack of body is a minus, and a little more depth would be nice. Can't stop sipping this pint, though.
