Pours a dense black with a crema kind of head. Lacing is a bit thin, but alright. I mean, this looks like a decent stout and there's not much more to say.

Sour, stouty nose with a hint of red grapes, coffee beans and cranberries. Quite aromatic, but a bit simple in spite of that.

Taste is not too bad at all. A slight smokey front with a lot of roastiness, but not intense and doesn't overpower the palate. Bold and manly, with a bitter kind of twist and a slightly sweet lingering with sour toasty notes on the finish. Very well balanced palate and very drinkable. It's strong and flavoursome, but pleasant. Goes down quite smooth and leaves a nice dark malt flavour on the end.

A - Pours a solid black into my pint glass with a couple of centimetres of light brown head that, suprisingly, falls away rather quickly.
S - Roasty with subdued chocolate aromas. Some slight dark fruit presence in the background.
T - A smokiness is fairly present along with the roasted notes & chocolate.
M - A little light on for a stout, I prefer my stouts a bit fuller.
D - Nice stout. I'd drink more but there are better stouts for the same or less dollars.
