Mar 28, 2008 ...not bad at all. Slightly hoppy, with a great caramel, dark roasted malt flavor. Well balanced, and easy to drink, especially cold. Could be better, but hey, it’s Australian.

Jun 26, 2007 Bottle from Melbourne. Pours a black colour with a good brown head. Aroma of roasted malt and roasted caramel with some chocolate. The flavour is smooth and sweet with roasted malt and caramel, some dark fruits, chocolate and coffe. Roasty sweet finish. Good but too much sweetness.

Jan 6, 2006 Typical clear black, with next to no head and not much lacing. A weak watery aroma, but I managed to find some roasted malt manifesting itself as burnt instant coffee. The roasted bitterness in the flavour seems to hang out there rather than integrating into the rest of the beer. This may have something to do with the short, exceptionally thin and very gasst palate. This seems a lot weaked than 5.2%, and considering the other good aussie stouts out there widely available I couldn’t find a single reason to consume this again.
