If you like your Miners Stout now you will love this. It doesn't really change the flavor, it just kind'a gives it follow through. The kit gives you a bite up front but leaves you wanting more. It darkens it up a bit too. Like choclate syrup in the bottem of your glass. Also like most stouts, It only gets better with age.
