Kenmount Road Chocolate Stout
Amber's Brewing
Edmonton
5.6 % alcohol, 341 ml bottles, twist-off cap
You would be a happy beer lover on Christmas Day if you found this fine brew under the tree.
The beer pours very dark brown to black with a medium density foamy brown head.
The aroma is a mellow collection of roasted malt and chocolate with a hit of coffee smokiness.
Initially the taste is sweet, giving way to a bitterness that disolves into malty, molasses elemets which fade to a lingering finish with a bit more chocolate and roastiness.
As I said before this is a fine brew, very smooth with certain creaminess.
Something not to be overlooked with the beer is that it's brewed right here in Edmonton. I believe beer lovers should try to support our local brewers. Also, beer vendors (bars and stores) should be making the local brews available.
Cheers
