Review: Sweetwater Brewing 420 Strain Chocolate Stout

Sweetwater Brewing Co

American Stout

6.4% ABV

"The 420 Strain is back in black with a chocolaty stout and head-turning aroma. Our unholy trinity of hops, strain-specific terpenes and natural hemp-type flavors complement a roasty malt backbone, resulting in a dreamy medley of mouth-watering flavors: Tropical fruit on the inhale, coffee on the exhale, gooey chocolate all the way through."


If you're a chocolate lover you will love this chocolate stout from Sweetwater Brewing. Upon opening you get aromas of weed--yes weed. I guess this is where the 420 in the name comes from. You also get aromas of coffee and chocolate. I guess you could describe the smell as being similar to pot brownies.


This one pours a pretty black with a very thick khaki head that retains well. The taste is chocolaty-coffee with hints of roasted malts. You also get some danky-weed notes as well. It has a medium -bodied feel on the tongue. Not too rich but also not light. It goes down nice and smooth with a danky aftertaste.


Overall, this was a very solid and unique stout that we enjoyed very much.
