look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5

A- very dark with a slight reddish hue

S- dark roasted malts, coffee

T- very nice balance between malts and hops in this one. More bitter than my ideal stout but it actually works well.

M- On the thin side and a little too much carbonation but it is still enjoyable.

O- I'm not a big Sierra Nevada fan but I got this one in a make your own 6 pack and was pleasantly surprised. It is on the cusp of being too thin and too bitter but it never quite falls over the cliff. I would pick it again in a pick a 6 type situation

-Appearance: Black in a pint glass, gray-ish white head. Leaves a scarce lacing but shimmers and dissipates nicely! Fun to look at.

-Smell: sweet malt, a bit nutty

-Taste: a bold malty flavor, semi bitter sweet chocolate and a hit of coffee.

-Feel: Eaaasy, but satisfying. I was going to say I wish it had more body but I resigned that thought, it was great! Smooth but stuck on my tongue like "hey fool, you know you wanna take another sip".

I quite enjoyed this, I would give this to a friend as an introduction stout, easy to drink with a full flavor. Thanks Sierra Nevada.
