LAKEFRONT SNAKE CHASER IRISH STYLE STOUT

Frothy cascading pour, thick tan head, and opaque black body reminiscent of Guinness Stout, though nutty finish seems thinner. Efficient dry coffee ground bittering strikes palate initially as aromatic chalky cocoa waft hits nose. Milky chocolate addendum and creamy vanilla tease balance hop-charred roasted coffee frontage. Dried fruit tartness adds depth, nullifying distant astringent mustiness.

MURPHY’S IRISH STOUT

Well-established brown-bodied dry stout brings creamy cascading froth and aromatic mocha-nut ogle to mellow coffee bean entry. Grain-toasted chocolate malt solace and watery texture soften over time. Recessive hazelnut, cola nut, and walnut notes linger softly. Compared to thicker, richer Irish stouts, a tad flat or unassuming, though subtle nature perfect for less hearty thirsts at sunny afternoon barbecue.
