This is another beer provided by the MBT 52W Beer Club. It’s good timing, there have been many blogs talking about this beer excitedly. Fortunately I’ve forgotten what their descriptions detailed, other than its a tasty beer. Well, that’s me sold, it’s worth a go 
Profanity Stout (7.0%) explains that this beer is rich, dark, and dry hopped. An odd combination! This beer has wheat and oats on the ingredients list so I expect a silky mouthfeel. It also says ‘balls to the wall’ on the label so it must be good.
PS comes in a 330ml bottle and opens with a loud hiss. It pours inky black with a very large, billowing tan head. This slowly recedes down the glass but leaves a firm coating as it goes.
On the aroma we get coffee, and interestingly phenolics… burning tar, the kind you used to see in trucks parked on the pavement, on the nose. I can only imagine how that works… it took me a while to place it! Hints of liquorice as well. It’s complex to say the least.
The mouthfeel is strange, I’d say medium but theres an alcohol hit to it that makes it hard to pin down. The flavour is like nothing I’ve ever tasted. I’ve had to sit back and consider my words here!
The flavour is a very strange mix of elements. There are bitter coffee grounds there, but then there is a hoppy flavour, hard to identify, that is lifting the roast malts. There’s body missing that I expect to be there. I wonder if my PS is infected somehow, interesting.
I think I got a bad one, I’m struggling to finish it. Shame, now I have to go find another to make sure I’ve not gone mad!
