The Sasquatch Stout is a release from Chilliwack BC’s Old Yale Brewing Company. This stout is extremely dark with absolutely no light making it through its black hole of an appearance. Topped with two fingers of head the smell is smooth with notes of chocolate, toasted malt and a touch of hop bitterness. The Sasquatch’s taste starts off light and mild; this builds into a creamy center where the chocolate starts to show its face. It is not until the bitter-end that the hops show up but they are actually stronger than one would anticipate. The balance of chocolate and hop give this creamy stout depth, sophistication and a high drink-ability factor that leaves me reaching for more.

This is a great stout. It is so drinkable and it also helps make one hell of a stout cake! Versatility!
