Thanks, Aaron! Gusher! Huge amounts of foam and head formation; pours a very dark chocolate-brown color; huge light-tan head with good retention and mixed-bubbled lacing. Basic, lightly toasted malts, roasted malts, and bitter chocolate in the aroma; a very slight, stalky vegetal note; dry and crisp, if a bit under-pronounced. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: lots of roasted malts (soft edges), bitter chocolate, and lots of dark / milk chocolate maltiness; very significant, pronounced, yummy chocolate character; again, especially dry, lightly toasty, and very drinkable stuff; enjoyable, sessionable stout. Lengthy finish: dark chocolate, light bitterness, and roasted malts; soft, mouthcoating. argo0 (6144), Washington DC, USA Jul 29, 2008 (750ml bottle) Gushing tan head atop black body.
