Brewery Hometown: England

Appearance: Decent head, dark like a stout should be. Respectable is the word mentioned a lot. Dark. Dark. Opaque.

Aroma: Major fruity smacks. Hard alcohol is coming through. Adam thinks he detects part of their oatmeal stout.

Taste: Adam, Brian, Andy: “did NOT see that coming. Bitter coffee task lingers throughout it.” Andy does NOT like his initial sip; alcohol REALLLLLLY bleeds through. Adam, Matt: “tastes like I am drinking black coffee/regular espresso.” Gets sweeter as you continue drinking it; very heavy on the coffee/espresso taste. Matt: “why could this not taste more like blueberry vodka and sprite (in reference to Butler’s drink)” Sigh…maybe you like it if you dig coffee…in and around your mouth…24/7.

Alcohol: 7%

Drink one or all?: 1. Results are mixed.

Cost: $10 / 4 bottle

Overall: Andy: 14/20, Brian: 15/20, Adam: 15/20, Matt: 11/20…BRUTAL
