Cadillac Mtn. Stout from Bar Harbor Brewing Company
Rating: B+
Thanks to barleywinebrewer for sending this one my way in the Little Guy BIF.
Appearance: Very, very dark and opaque. Good head and retention, some lacing.
Smell: Surprisingly light aroma - I was expecting more depth. What's here is lots of roast/burnt malt, and some bitter dark chocolate. Breathing deeply reveals a boozy, alcohol aroma as well.
Taste: First few sips are disappointing. Lighter and less complex than I was expecting in a top 50 beer. Emphasis is on the roast. Not nearly as chocolatey as the label description makes it sound.
Mouthfeel: Medium-full, smooth, good carbonation.
Drinkability: Quite drinkable - goes down easy. That said, unremarkable and overrated.
Serving type: bottle
