Raspberry Stout (Home Brew Tasting)

13 Oct

Name – Raspberry Stout
Country – United States
Type – Raspberry Stout

Appearance – Pours a brownish red color with a thin tan line of a head.  Can see bits of raspberry going to the bottom of the glass.

Smell – Fresh raspberries.

Taste – Raspberries right off the bat but not like raspberry flavoring, real ones.  Tastes like if you just ate a few right off from a market.  There was some slightly dark fruit flavors to it as well and a little alcohol bit at the end.

This was the second of the home brews that I got from Chung and boy was this different.  He said it was a stout so I expected it to be heavy but it really wasn’t.  It looked like a Belgian style ale in it’s consistency then drank like one too.  The real raspberries used in it do make it quite sweet but a very nice after dinner sipping beer.

Overall Grade – B-

    Maybe I’ll have to send a home brew your way before too awfully long.

    I’ve had a few of his other home brews that he has let me try at the bar. There is a Ginger IPA that is awesome!
