Nail Stout came recommended by several in the community, now finally tracked down for tasting.
The barman tells me Nail used to do a different stout that was absolutely excellent, and this was always the step down. But the current batch has leveled up a bit and found some middle ground.
This is certainly a fine stout, pitch black and creamy, with a strong choc-coffee aroma. Slightly too fizzy, and slightly too light for my personal tastes but it's well balanced and roasty throughout, with a fine bitter finish. 8.0
Verified a couple of times since. It could be a bit less fizzy, but it's got a nice flavour profile and pretty enjoyable throughout.
