Aug 20, 2009 Tasted at brewery. Clear and deep brown, brownish and fine creamy head. Aroma is dark and toasted, it smells bitter from malt. The flavor lingers, chocolate and hops mingle to make it drinkable. Body is fairly thin (reminds me of Guinness) but full of flavor. Yay beer!

Aug 18, 2009 On tap at Ashley’s. Poured black with a light brown head. Aroma was full of roasted malts and a sweet chocolate undertone. Flavor began full of roasted malts, then a sweet dark candy flavor led out to the finish. Seemed a bit like a sweet stout.

Aug 17, 2009 Dark caramel color with a thin white head. Strong licorice flavor compliments the brown sugar aroma. Really different than anything else I’ve had.

Aug 17, 2009 Julio’s Belgian Beer Festival. Sample.Although closer to a stout than a belgian ale, the belgian yeast definitely makes this one interesting. A bit on the thin side though it does pack some flavor.

Aug 11, 2009 Batch #9. pours a somewhat thin black with small rocky tan head. sweet roasty aroma -- chocolate milk and cookies, with a slight sour note underneath.
very milk chocolatey with burnt malt and lots of toasted rice. there’s a hint of fruityness and yeast. very mild. silky smooth but somewhat thin and maybe too much carbonation.

Aug 9, 2009 Enjoyed on tap at Ashley’s. Satisfying, its black yes with off-white head and its very lacey. A roasted stout aroma, medium mouthfeel. Coffee and roast. Aggressive carbonation but also good drinkability.

Aug 6, 2009 Tallahassee, Fl. - Liquor Loft - 750 ml caged corked bottle. Pitch black pour with a quickly fading spritzy khaki colored head. Slightly fruity aroma (plums?) with some chocolate accents. Flavor is on the sweet end of the spectrum with some chocolate, a hint of bitter coffee, some licorice and a finish of marshmallows. Actually, this reminds me more of a Schwarz than a Foreign Stout. Mouthfeel - silky - about right for this type of stout. Not disappointed - just expected a tad more.
