Draft at / Crowler from the brewery. Dark brown color, small tan head. Roasted coffee, caramel, bit of vanilla, some molasses, and brown sugar notes. Great feel overall, one of the best low ABV stouts I can recall, and one of the better stouts I've had in some time. Excellent on a hot day, especially if you want a stout that hasn't been over adjuncted, over boozed, and over barrel aged. Something about this hits the spot almost perfectly.

On tap at brewery. Number one with a bullet. Amber orange pour. Dense bubbly beige head. Nice lacing. Rich sweet malty nose with notes of berries and caramel. Sweet toasted malt flavor. More berry fruit notes. Bittersweet Floral hop notes in middle. Pleasant dry finish. Some alcohol as well. Quite flavorful. Best beer I had at brewery.

On tap at brewery. Number one with a bullet. Dark brown, black color. Small creamy tan head takes off down the road. Big roasted malt and dark coffee nose. Surprisingly subtle roasted malt flavor upfront. Coffee notes are there, but subdued. Smooth, earthy, dark malt notes in middle. Brief roasted malt finish with a hint of herbal hops. A very approachable stout for those who don't drink them.
