Beer Tasting - Dry Stout ('Black Scottish Stout' by Belhaven Brewery)

in #beer7 years ago

Bitcoin is to move either above resistance or continue the downward spiral. I think up as there is some strength in alts. I see some good setups forming. Let’s hope that’s the case.

This symmetrical triangle is what I’m referring to. It’s just edging above the resistance line. If it makes a decent move it might bounce of of it on the way down.

On the alt side look at STRAT, BAT, NAV, ADA to name just a few of the big ones.


Yesterday a pub which I tend to avoid due to all the flashy props inside. It screams we are fake Irish gang. I counted seven monitors inside, one locked in a cupboard outside and one above the urinals (!), that’s right. You can watch the news as you pee. On the upside they really put a lot of work and money to make it look so and the waiter crew is great. Prices are… meh. You can find somewhat better deals elsewhere but we are in crypto, so we don’t care, right?

I really liked this random hidden Bowie!

Black brew today, just as the name says.

Belhaven Black Scottish Stout

StyleDry Stout
CountryDunbar, East Lothian, Scotland
BreweryBelhaven (Greene King)
Alcohol4.2%
--------------
AppearancePitch black. Thick stoutish layer of tan head.
AromaWeak. Roasty. Some acidity.
TasteQuite bland. Low sweet and not much else. Like watery cream. Easy to down. Doesn't offend in any way. Just don't expect much.
PalateWatery to creamy with thin body. Leaves almost no aftertaste. Dry as they say.
--------------
OverallI'm a stout person and this i could drink every day religious ly if the price was right and were it readily available. That's the downside of it. You'd expect more for the exclusivity it has here. This is probably common in the areas where it originates from.
Score (subjective)12/20

Price: 28 kuna (4.70$) for 0.5 l. On tap at a pub. Mid-range.

I don't like Stout at all. Most dark beers are a no go for me but that's personal.
If I my give you an advice about a beer, I would recommend "Karmeliet". It's a triple blond beer with an alcohol % of 8.4. It is my favorite beer of the world!
I do have the feeling that BTC will continue to rise from Feb on. Time will tell.

That sounds like a beer I would really enjoy. I'm gonna have to try to get my hands on that one.

Let's hope the wild BTC ride takes us up from here!

It seems it's trying!

they love having tv's everywhere here but in the toilet is a little bit to luch I think

Maybe I am just to old school LOL

Well, that's a bit disappointing. The name of it alone - a Black Scottish Stout - got me all geared up to read about an amazing beer. And it looks so yummy as well.

Maybe there's a time and a place for it, but I couldn't help but be disappointed after getting my expectations up like that.

I've never tried Bellhaven products. I love Guinness stout. Hard to find on tap in Michigan USA. We have an Irish pub close to where I live, but that is the only place.

great photos and post bud. I love a good stout! cheers

Bowie and beer... looks like a good time to me

Ive always thought that Belhaven Black was what Guinness is supposed to taste like.

I could agree with that. To me, Guinness is just a bit disappointing. The flavor falls off and it really doesn't quite cut it as a "stout." I'll give it credit for being a porter, but I've never truly considered it a stout porter.

Thought Scots were good at whiskies but turns out they make some beers. But the one you had cannot meet your expectation.

great work bro learning frm your post😊

Great post friend. And amazing photography i like it. Keep it up. Have a nice day.

thanks for sharing cryptocurrency whalepower like your post informative one😊

informative post :)

The Borderers drink! Not the greatest beer out there but it is my first choice for a night out, currently costing no more than £4 a pint in my local area. Pours a dark reddish colour with a dark creamy head. The main attraction is the smooth and creamy texture that I love every time. Not too much in flavour, very malty but yet balanced between light flavour and mildly bitter. Low alcohol content lets you have a few before you get tipsy. Always worth a try.

I agree with the fact that Bitcoin has to either break above the symm. triangle or below. Its kind of looking like it might break below just because the triangle is not pointing upward, but who knows, we've been consolidating for a while and I think its time we had another big breakout move! Also that David Bowie art on the wall is life!

sorry no crypto comments, but I have had that beer and found it to be pretty enjoyable but tame also. nice beer review.

Thanks for your sharing dear @buzzbeergeek

If we drunk a beer for 1 time ,it will show any effect to body like increase belley size?

Great review! By any chance, do you have access to Belhaven Scottish Stout there? I'm not sure if that's exclusively an export or not. I know I have not seen the "Black" here in Texas, but we definitely have the Scottish Stout. It tastes pretty much like you described, but with a higher alcohol content and probably a bit more flavor. Also, from what you described, the Scottish Stout also probably has a more full-bodied mouthfeel.

I've always considered it the "milk" of beers. It isn't overly flavorful, but it has an enjoyable flavor nonetheless and is simply creamy and enjoyable. As you felt about this one, the Scottish Stout is one that I could drink on a regular basis with no issues, and tastes great cold or at room temp.

At any rate, great review and thanks for introducing us to new brews!
