Utopian Stout
A full-bodied, medium dry stout: warm roasted malt on the nose, dark chocolate and coffee behind it, a silky mouthfeel underneath. The brewery insists it is neither an Imperial nor an Export Stout. The label carries an image by Gary McCall, a starry night sky over the coastline as seen from Kinbane Head.
