    Tasted this one last night….. as a friend says, “stout is very forgiving”. This was very nice, and did not have the unpleasant tanginess that many commercial stouts have. This was nice, and maybe that’s because of the use of fresh roasted barley to give that distinctive stout flavour.

    The colour of course is black as the ace of spades – can’t ever go wrong with colour when you’re using dark and roasted malts. The hops flavour is perfect, not too bitter, and the aroma is subtle.

    Overall, I think this turned out well for a first go at stout. I rate it 4 out 5 pots!
