AleSmith Speedway Stout

Name: Speedway Stout

Brewery: AleSmith

Overall Rating:  A+

Style:  Imperial Stout

Serving Style: 750ml Bottle

ABV:  12%

Price: $ 11.5

Appearance:  Dark black, opache.  So dark you can’t even see the carbonation.  Try holding it up to the light and still nothing shines through.

Aroma:  Talk about smell the coffee.  Definitely smells of the coffee with a slight hint of vanilla.

Flavor: Strong flavor, coffee does come through.  Tasting this reminds me of when I just want to wake up in the morning and have black coffee to give me a boost.  I think this would have the same effect.  Starbucks watch out!

Body:  The body of an ebony goddest,  full and very satisfying.

Enjoyability:  I loved this one.  The is only the second AleSmith for me and I am becoming a fan of theirs real quick.  This is one you do not want to rush through at all.  Sit back a watch your favorite show or kick back with your buddies and enjoy.

Another take:  AleSmith
