Draught. Inky black with small tan foamy head, little bit of roasted malt aroma, low carbonation, mocha taste laced with alcohol, medium finish with coffee beans taste. Quite a mellow stout.

Sample at GABF 10/04/2014, thanks to my BIL for assistance with note-taking. Pours black with a medium foamy light brown head that dissipates steadily. Patchy lacing. Aroma of malt, coffee and chocolate. Medium-bodied with flavors of roasted malt, coffee and dark chocolate. The finish is roasty with a chocolate malt aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Drought. Inky black with creamy large tan head, slight mocha aroma, low carbonation, tastes like coffee laced with cognac, although the body is a bit thin, long finish with cappucino like aftertaste. Definitely a fine brew!

The Sampler, Brooklyn tap: Pours golden with a white head. Aroma is a little bit earthy and herbal (as the description above aptly notes), with some bready malts. Taste is similar. There is no citrus or pine in this beer. It seems a little underwhelming, but that is not to say that the beer is not tasty in its own right.

Drought. Hazy amber color with small off-white foamy head, light caramel aroma, spicy taste, high carbonation, abrupt finish. Tastes as if artificial sweeteners were added, the aftertaste is very similar. Apart from that a nice brew.

Matt Torry’s, Brooklyn tap ($6): Pours golden with white head. Aroma is light citrus hops and bready malts. Taste is bitter and a little bit spicy. Nice and simple golden ale. Unpretentious. Nice session

Location: Sampled at TapNY, 4/26/14
Aroma: The nose is sweetish, some caramel, roast, and a little chocolate
Appearance: This one pours a murky dark brownish color with a medium brown head
Flavor: The flavor is similar, with roasted malt, some caramel, and chocolate sweetness
Palate: The body is medium, with a somewhat creamy mouthfeel, and an average carbonation
Overall Impression: I thought this was a pretty solid stout. This was my favorite of the Gun Hill beers that they were offering at the festival. I look forward to seeing how these guys progress.
