Review: Madrugada Obscura
Jolly Pumpkins Madrugada Obscura Dark Dawn Stout is a very unique beer to say the least. There are a few other commercial examples of a sour stout but none are as easily obtainable in Michigan as Madrugada.
Appearance: Black, 1/4" tan head, good lacing on the glass that stuck around for awhile.
Smell: Typical JP funk, coffee, chocolate, and a slight whiff of cherry.
Taste: Very sour, some brett funk, good bit of oak, a tart chocolate covered cherry, light fig, and ending with a well blended stout maltiness.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied, ok carbonation, a little on the high side, would want it to be a little thicker.
Drinkability: Great taste but too much of this stout would quickly burn out my taste buds.
