Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout

This is a classic, well-balanced, smooth and easy to drink stout. Everything is in perfect proportion for immediate enjoyment, a change from the sea of delicious yet often incredibly potent and assertive barrel-aged domestic stouts that currently dominate the market. Deep brown in color, with a full, creamy tan head, this immediately entices with notes of chocolate-covered malted milk balls, roasted grain, toasted brown bread and light touches of peanut skin and sweet smoke. The palate offers more of those notes within a rich and full-bodied mouthfeel, balanced by moderate carbonation that keeps any cloying or overly sweet impressions at bay. Merchant du Vin.
