Dogfish Head
Chicory Stout - 5.2% ABV
Dogfish Head has been very consistent on producing quality beer and they did it once again with the Chicory Stout. Even with the low ABV of 5.2% I was very impressed.
This beer was not only pleasing to the palate, it was pleasing to the eye. The color was almost jet black with a fair amount of carbonation bolting to the top. A mocha colored head finished the picture perfect beer. A coffee and charred wood scents rose from the glass that would make any beer lover's mouth water. Sigh, I need a moment to gather my thoughts.
Don't you wish you could reach in and grab this beer?
The flavor was just as I expected, coffee with a smokey backbone. It was a light to medium bodied beer that left a little hint of chocolate sweetness on my tongue. This is a well balanced coffee porter that I will certainly get again and again.
Cheers!
