1185. Babayaga
Jadyn had picked this beer up for me awhile ago, but we finally got around to drinking it in May.
Beer Stats:
Brewery: Pretty Things Beer and Ale Project
Alcohol: 7.00%
Serving: Bottle, 22 oz.
Style: American Stout, BJCP Style Guide
Appearance:4.0 | Smell:3.5 | Taste: 4.5 | Mouthfeel: 4.0| Drinkability: 3.5
Overall: 4.05
Babayaga pours a deep black, and is topped by a thick, fluffy, creamy brown head that slowly fades to an eighth-inch thick layer. The aroma is reserved, but pleasant. Roasted malts come out on swirling, but on sitting the sweet notes of chocolate and fruit are most evident.
Sweet chocolate flavors upfront serve as a the backbone of this beer, lasting throughout, but are elaborated upon from start to finish. A mild fruitiness appears in the center, and the chocolate morphs into a roasted, dark chocolate flavor in the finish. This beer is full-bodied, smooth, creamy, and nicely carbonated.
I though that this was a very good stout, though perhaps slightly on the sweet side.
