8 Wired iStout

Finally the big day where we could crack this big bottle of expensive expectations.

Pours flat, disappointing lack of head. Jet black except the edges where you can see just a bit of light. It's 10%.. but there's not too much alcohol apparent in the aroma or the taste. The roasty coffee taste is long and lasting after a real full mouth experience from this one.

The bottle suggests putting this over vanilla ice cream. My word that sounds amazing. But at the same time it's like watering down a high quality spirit .. bit of a waste.

I want more of this. 9.0

- edit -
Another try of this yields a bit more soy and salty flavours than I'd like. Bumping it down to a still excellent 8.5
