Nov 19, 2009 50cl bottle poured into a pint glass. Huge cinnamon coloured head which slowly subsided. Very little lacing. The aroma is of baking chocolate, bitter sweet. The mouth feel is a little oily, with a chocolaty after taste. Mmm, a very nice pint of stout.

Nov 16, 2009 Aroma of smoke, tar and new-laid asphalt. A bit too smoked to my taste even though the rating is good.

Nov 2, 2009 Poured out, take a wild guess what it looked like? That’s right - black. Almost like an Imperial Stout, but not as viscous as one. There was almost no head but a nice tan film left behind and a slight bubble to the brew. It had a nice aroma of hops and the spice of barley. There was also an overall roasted smell to the beer. It tasted slightly creamy to start but the bodied bite from the barley and spices kicked in. The spicy flavor sticks around for a little while while the hops flows in at the end. The texture was a little watery - reminiscent of Guinness. It had a little body but it was a tad thin. The flow was a little sudden between flavors. I don’t think there was enough hops in this beer - hops/barley ratio was off.

Oct 31, 2009 On tap at Collins Pub. Pours a near black fading to brown with a thick cappuccino head. Aroma is basic brown sugar and caramel while the taste is much the same, with a bit of lactic thrown in. Not the best.

Oct 23, 2009 Bottle. Cold coffee aroma with some milk chocolate and sweetness on the nose. Black body with tan head. Thin body texture with a good dose of sweetener. Also some good roasted coffee flavor in the mix. Sweetness overpowers the coffee on the palate. Decent brew.
