The Commodore came out of our search for a medium-bodied American Stout. The recipe began at our R&D pilot brewery, but quickly became a favorite of our crew. Strong flavors of roast coffee and bittersweet chocolate balance with light citrusy hop aromas, highlighted by a crisp, bitter finish. One sip of this gold medal-winning stout will have you ready to take command of your own fleet.

    Aroma: 10 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

    Pours deep coffee brown with a thick, frothy and rather persistent tan head. Aroma delivers roast malt, coffee, semi-sweet chocolate, and subtle woody hop tones. Flavor delivers all that the aroma promises, but nothing more. Mouthfeel seems a bit thin for a stout, and is not too fizzy. Nevertheless, fit for a Commodore. Didn’t have any Russian Imperial Stout for Yuri’s night, but an American Stout will do.

    A deep dark ebony colored beer with a three fingered tight sudsy textured, tan head rising above. There's some hang tim on the head. A thin cap and ringlet are left. The roasted malt and cocoa. The tasting has an upfront, distinctive bittering chocolate. Light-medium bodied.

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7

    Pours black with a tan head that doesn't retain that well, lacing is ok. Char and dark chocolate aroma. Flavour of burnt malt, bitter chocolate, strong black coffee, cocoa, acidic and hop bitterness. Medium and chalky mouthfeel. Enjoyable flavour but the aroma is a little odd.

    Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

    12 oz bottle. Pours dark brown black with a medium creamy tan head that retains well and laces the glass.

    The aroma is sweet perfumey roast grainy malt.

    The flavor is sweet grainy malts and a little fruit with a heavy acidic roast bitterness in the finish. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.

    Overall, grainy with lots of acidic roast.
