Part of a mixed six pack (2 Hefe, 2 Cream Stout, 2 Boston Ale) from Sam Adams @ 7.49, Publix, Villa Rica, GA, USA.
Nice dark, mahogany brown/black pour with a considerable rocky, light brown head that hung around. Some decent lacing too.
There are some seriously sweet, sherry like aromas. This is a soft drinking, sweet stout, with a medium body that gives a mouthfeel larger than one would expect. However it doesn’t suffer from excessive sweetness that some of the Milk Stouts can. The bitterness is mild, but persistent. It’s evident at the start of the drink and all the way through in a way that is unusual (I find that most stouts give a creamy start and a bitter finish).
Surprisingly good.
