Looks like a normal stout, even smells like one, decent coffee and roasted malts on the nose. Sort of downhill from there, it's one of those "sour" stouts and I don't care for that at all. Not sure how that hint of sourness gets in there but it really takes away from anything good this beer had going for it.

So the barkeep gives me this really nice sized "sample" of this beer, after he saw me jotting down some notes about the others. By this time I was feeling mighty fine, but he insisted that I tried this. What a treat it was! Keeping up in the spirit of Vintage brews, it's pretty high in alcohol, but very well balanced. Pitch black of courrse. Roasted malts heavy on the nose and palate. Creamy, very full and sweet, but not cloying. No taste of metal, which I'm leary of after trying a few metallicy stouts recently. Coffee grounds, rye bread, and some black licorice. Fantastic!

Thick and rich with heavy roasted malt; coffee, bitter chocolate, caramel and molasses. Full bodied but undercut by excessive carbonation that masks the latent smoothness that become more evident and heavier as it warms. Rich chocolate brown color with a thin head, light lace, and a faint chocolate aroma. This new brewpub shows promise. Their first three efforts demonstrate solid technical competence. Plus, the use of 3 differnent yeast strains for their first 3 beers out of 4 small fermentation vesels shows more adventurous spirit from the new stewards of this space and equipment than was exhibited by the lackluster performance of JT Whitneys as their demise approached.
