May 12, 2008 Bottle from State Line. Pours dark brown/blackish with 3-finger light brown head. Nose is dry roasty malt, chocolate, nuts, brown sugar. Tastes on the dry side of the stout spectrum initially, having notes of dark malt, mild rauchy notes, mild cherry notes, and brown sugar and nuts. Fairly complex throughout, and the bottle I had stayed rather dry during its entire life cycle, with some rauchy elements coming and going. Not bad at all.
