Description
Wachusett Brewing Company was founded by three Massachusetts college students obsessed with the brewing culture and an appreciation for craft beer during their adventures of biking, canoeing, and hiking around New England. Armed with a “we can do this” attitude, the three cast off from their careers in engineering and biology to pursue their passion to make great beer.

16 oz, draft at Barking Dog Ale House, Haverhill. Pitch Black color, fast dying head. Aroma is weak chocolate, mild roast, and weak coffee grounds. I guess the body is about right for such a low ABV stout. Dry texture. Overall, it has the feel of a Guinness clone.

Interesting aroma that definitely reminds me of a blueberry muffin. Palate isn't particularly complex but I feel the need to compliment this beer for balancing just the right amount of blueberry notes without taking away from the basis of the beer.

Pours a somewhat cloudy dark amber from a can. Tropical and stone fruit aromas with a bit of pine. Flavor is actually rather peppery, with more stone fruit. Good beer.
