750 ml bottle into snifter, bottled on 9/25/2015. Pours lightly murky nearly opaque dark brown color with a 1-2 finger dense tan head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of milk chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted dark bread, caramel, raisin, plum, fig, apple, light smoke/char, herbal, floral, and yeast/roasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of big milk chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted dark bread, caramel, raisin, plum, fig, apple, light smoke/char, herbal, floral, and yeast/roasted earthiness. Balanced bittersweet roast/herbal hop finish; with lingering notes of milk chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted dark bread, caramel, raisin, plum, fig, apple, light smoke/char, herbal, floral, and yeast/roasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness, complexity, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; with zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/silky, and slightly chalky mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a very good Foreign stout style. All around good complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV. A very enjoyable offering.
