Wow! This poured jet black with a fizzier-than-most, dark tan creamy head. Almost reminded me of a Guinness. I love anything that uses the word "stout," so I was pretty pumped to try an Australian beer that claimed to be the "best extra stout."
The first flavor that it my tongue was a dark mocha rush. Smooth and carbonated just as I had hoped. Some bitterness was to expected at the end but there was nothing bitter about this black beauty. It had a long coffee finish. I kept holding the mug to the light to see a color or tone other than black, but even with an inch of brew left, it was opaque. Dark and perfect, and I loved it.
It has 6.3% alcohol with 187 calories, so take it easy. If someone showed up at our Monday night football party with a 6 pack and intended on drinking them all, I would be very shocked to see them succeed.
Thank you Australia for brewing the perfect beer for an "end of the day" stout with a ton of flavor. I will go back to World Market and buy a few more.
