5% ABV

The Pour
Poured on tap at Gambrinus Bistro and Cafe in London, ON. Cascading head. A very black stout with a mocha, creamed head. Minimal carbonation.
Aroma
Some chocolate notes, biscuity maltiness. Hints of espresso. Slight bitterness.
Taste
Silky smooth, some espresso and dark chocolate notes. Slight bitterness. Dries out to the back of the throat. The oatmeal adds a nice coating mouth feel.
Overall Impression
I love a good stout and this is one of them. Not that I would expect less from McAuslan Brewery. Just a terrific velvety smooth stout. Nice and mellow with balanced chocolate and coffee notes. A stout to be drank not sipped. Not as full favoured and "huge" like a KBS but this isn't an imperial to be belaboured all night. Definitely an A.
