Sierra Nevada, Stout


Look: Smooth black with slight cocoa head

Taste: Very light with a roasted malt/barley finish

Conclusion: I'm usually a "stout" supporter(i kill myself) of Sierra Nevada. I'm a sucker for their monstrous Tornado IPA.

This stout, however, was like drinking a Porter. The mandatory roasted malt flavor was there but the lingering taste is one of, well, roasted malt and not much else. There was way too much carbonation on the front end and not enough flavor on the back.

This one had me scratching my head. It's like they put all their effort into their other brews and didn't care to pay much attention to this one. It's not bad, but nothing special.

5 Brews!
