Dark Starr Stout
Appearance: Poured a black color, completely opaque. Two finger pillowy brown/tan head. Good, dimpled retention. Moderate lacing down the glass. Smell: Nose is of dark roasted malts and a above average sweetness. There is also a sharpness to the nose. Taste: Bitter roasted malts to start, with some sweetness in the middle, and a long after taste or the roasted, almost burnt malts. Good amount of bitterness and moderate sweetness. A slight dark fruit taste, but not overpowering the malts. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied, and a nice bitter bite. Not much carbonation. Drinkability: A good stout, but definitely high on the roasted and smoky malts. Some sweetness to balance, but definitely toasty. Not a bad thing at all, just don&#8217;t expect a creamy or smooth stout. Easy to drink, though. Buy Again? Yes, but there are better stouts.
