Poured from a 1 pint can into a pint glass, nitro can. This pours a pitch black color with a foamy nitro head which leaves a finger thick head which remains throughout the beer. The smells are good, you get chocolate, coco, some light dark roasted malts. The feel is medium although creamy. The taste is pretty good, somewhat , light but creamy and tasty, you get the roasted malts, light bitterness, likely oatmeal, smooth nice session beer.

Serving type: nitro-can

Nitro-tap in a pint glass.

A- Black and opaque with a mocha-tan 1-plus finger head that has staying power. Heavy foamy lacing.

S- Sweet roasted malts with a hint of Irish whiskey back up the strong chocolate and coffee aromas.

T- Malted milk with a drop of Irish whiskey.

M- Medium and creamy with no carbonation. Roasty malt dry finish.

O- This Irish dry stout avoids the thin feel and limpy body found in other versions of the style. That helps set it apart.

Really enjoy the chocolate taste and aroma of this stout. Goes down smooth, great dessert beer. Not a very complex flavor, but I'm very surprised I liked this beer out of a can (I typically don't like canned beers; sue me). Doesn't taste as dry as many stouts do to me, and the roasted malt flavor really works. Coffee aroma and tastes were present as well.
