Awesome Stout

Tonight, Susan and I split my bottle of Green Flash Double Stout.  The beer pours a deep black with a very small, quickly disappearing tan head.  It smells of dark roasted malts and roasted coffee.  It tastes very roasty with the roastedness switching between coffee and dark chocolate.  There’s a hint of hops bitterness at the beginning, but the malts really shine towards the end.  It’s got a moderate amount of carbonation, but let it warm up a bit and it becomes silky smooth with a slightly oily mouthfeel.  This is one fantastic beer.  If you can get it in your area, it’s a must try.  I’m thinking about getting another bottle on my next trip to Yankee Spirits and aging it for a bit.
