Finbarr's, Irish Draught Stout (Ireland)
This is a widget-enabled "draught" stout in cans, made exclusively for the Aldi supermarket chain. On popping the ringpull the widget does its thing and this pours in a chocolaty stream that settles over the next minute into an opaque black body and thick, creamy head. I chilled this quite well, and on the nose it was rather neutral, with a hint of sweet mollasses. On the palate the thick dense texture is smooth, but the flavour remains rather subdued. A little bittersweet tang does develop, but it is rather unexciting, if cheap and palatable. 4.1% ABV, 44cl, �2.99 X 4, Aldi. |  |
