3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Tap. Black with a nice head. Aroma of black malt, chocolate and light smoke. Flavor picks up more smoke and some coffee roastiness, nice dry finish. While I really liked this beer it lacked that something special to make it the best stout ever. Solid though and I think with some tweaking could be one of those outatanding beers I seek out time after time.

Coffee notes, without being excessive. hints of chocolate. Very good stout with a great color and nose. Honestly one of my favorite stouts. Especially on those cold, wet, dreary northwest days.

Deep black body with a chocolaty, bubbly brown head. Wonderful nose with assertive floral hop qualities tied in with the rich coffee bean highlights. Silky and hearty malt body characterized by moderate roasted espresso beans and chocolate malt with a bit of earthen woody essence. Floral hop character with light grassy notes and a touch of mellow citrus. Impressive drink.
