Day 326-Beer 326 O'Hara's Irish Stout, Carlow Brewing , Bagenalstown, County Carlow, Ireland

Ooh a beer by CARLow, the name some of my Italian Friends call me. This one is an Irish Dry Stout, the big three of which are Guinness, Murphy's and Beamish. It poured a dark brown almost black colour with on finger of tan coloured head that left some blotchy but very sticky lacing. The aroma is dark roast cappuccino with milk chocolate. The flavour abounds with roasted malts and hints of milk chocolate in an espresso. In the background just a hint of spicy hops with a very dry finish. This is a great tasting stout especially for one so light in alcohol 4.3%ABV. This one should be a hit with any stout lover. 3.8 out of 5
