Blue Fin Stout from Shipyard Brewing Co.
Rating: B
Appearance: Completely opaque, with a full light brown head which exhibits very good retention. Nice lacing.
Smell: Cocoa powder, with a bit of a burnt edge. Not a particularly aromatic beer.
Taste: Quite dry, roasted barley being the most prominent flavor. A little too burnt for my taste. More day old coffee than chocolate in the middle. Lingering aftertaste.
Mouthfeel: Medium body, perhaps a bit overcarbonated.
Drinkability: Fairly average for the style. Turning the second glass into an ice cream float.
