On tap at McGillicuddy's, Williston, VT.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in color with a bar pour's kind of slim off-white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave a little bit of concave lace
Aroma: roasted dark malts, slight nutty tones, light vanilla beans further down
Flavor: leads with the roast and has a decent coffee taste (which I didn't smell, hmmmm, well, okay, whatever); mild aftertaste of the roasty dark malts
Texture: about medium bodied - perhaps a touch under, somewhere between sessionable and being a sipper, semi-smooth along the tongue with mild roast grip; finishes roasty, semi-smooth and a touch of coffee
Overall: nice enough stout worthy to enjoy again if I ever get the chance.
