Old #38 Stout from North Coast Brewing Co.
Rating: B+
Appearance: Very dark, not quite opaque with brown hues. Good sized head, fair retention, some lacing. Good appearance.
Smell: a bit more fruit than I'd expect in the nose - not that that's a bad thing. Caramel, some cocoa powder and roast.
Taste: Profile very similar to the aroma just described, but with a good amount of hops bitterness as backup, and a bit of a boozy finish you can feel in your nose as you swallow.
Mouthfeel: medium body, good carbonation.
Drinkability: A very drinkable beer. Alcohol low enough to be sessionable.
Serving type: bottle
