746. John Harvard's Espresso Stout
I had this on tap at John Harvard's on Wednesday.
Beer Stats:
Brewery: John Harvard's Brew House
Alcohol: ?
Serving: Tap
Style: American Stout, BJCP Style Guide
Appearance (5.0): Pitch black, topped by a dense brown head with very nice retention. Leaves sheets of lace on the side of the glass.
Smell (3.0): The aroma is fairly light: coffee and roasted grain.
Taste (3.5): Sweet upfront, chocolate flavors move into a somewhat bitter coffee finish. Sweet all the way through. Needs more balance.
Mouthfeel (3.5): Creamy and smooth. Low carbonation.
Drinkability (4.0): Very drinkable, sweetness is there but isn't too cloying.
Overall (3.75)
