Fluffy bronze-headed stout pours like tar, retaining odorous smoky mocha must. Dark chocolate-malted espresso resonance perfectly counters moderate oatmeal intonation. Though frothy, creamy, and dry, sparkling water texture goes against traditional style. Yet given its enduring milkshake finish, this traditional Brit is quite grandiose.
YOUNG’S DOUBLE CHOCOLATE STOUT
Bottled versions’ surfeit milk chocolate creaminess and heavy lactose resonation invite bittersweet cappuccino elegance to counter molasses-thick vanilla-butterscotch richness. Wavered black pepper spicing simmers below. In tin can, skanky mocha waft, frothy Guinness-like head, and soft watered texture beat down black chocolate essence of firm English draught-styled stout.
YOUNG’S DIRTY DICK’S ALE
Named after famous Bishop’s London pub, brown-hued biscuit-scented mild ale features punctual earthen grains, moderate bitter hops, and nutty caramelized malts. Very settling first sip with barley-wheat scouring back of the tongue. Well refined English ale blends traditional ingredients perfectly for crisp mocha finish. Fine for lighter ale drinkers ready to explore fine Euro market.
YOUNGER’S TARTAN SPECIAL ALE
ROGUE YOUNGER’S SPECIAL BITTER ALE
Persuasive wood-smoked grain bitterness enriches caramel-malted maple-sapped yeast-candied copper-hazed medium-bodied rogue. Reminiscent of Bass Pale Ale on tap, though creamy mocha theme, tangy orange-tangerine subtlety, and wheat biscuit finish make this even better as distinguished top of the line ESB.
