Tap at Blind Tiger. Best beer of the Vermont beer event. Strong bitter coffee aroma, lightly veregtal, cheese. Palate is a bit thin, tastes more like stale coffee and a bit of spoiled veggies. Still, while cold, this is a tasty and quenching beer. Just don’t let it get warm.

Draft at the blind tiger. Black, tan head with nice lacing. Nose is toffee & coffee, roasty cocoa, light burnt malt. Flavor is bitter (but not quite burnt) coffee, roasted & burnt malts, tingly hops. Long bitter finish.

Draft at Blind Tiger. Pours black with a good amount of tan head. Coffee is the name of the game here in the aroma. Very roasty. Taste is coffee (go figure), couldn’t get much else. Decent palate with bitter coffee and slightly hoppy finish.

Draft at the Blind Tiger. Black pour with a light brown ring of head. Aroma is roasted malt, slightly sweet black licorice. The mouthfeel is pretty smooth and soft. The flavor has a nice balance of sweet chocolate and fruit and the bitter dryness of coffee / roasted malt. This stout was still good when I found the bottom of the glass.

Draft at Blind Tiger. Tiny if any head at all. Drank next to the McNeills Oatmeal, this isnt half as roasty but a lot more hoppy. The flavors are apple, plum and raisens.
