Too Cream Stout

Dry and grainy on the whiff. Nice dry roasted flavor. Not too thick. Did I say dry? Drinking this colder than stout-appropriate temperature, but that does this justice, I think. Had a sip of this a bit warmer the other day when my girl was drinking one. She didn't care for it, and she has taken a liking to stouts, and I more or less agreed at the time. Now though, I can't find a flaw. Almost a bit of Guinness taste here, but only faintly. The flavor is just dry, roasty happiness, with a light body. But after searching hard for a flaw, maybe it is too light for what I want in a stout. That's the best I can find flaw-wise, so if you're a Guinness fan looking to expand into the world of other stouts, I nominate this as a good next step. Drink up! ID
