On tap at the brewpub on 6/20/07: Pours a barely transparent dark mahogany with a thin, spotty-lacing tan head. Aroma of lightly sweet dark caramel malt. Body starts a little thin for the style with some malt sugars, light soapiness and some lingering roasted bitterness toward the finish. An average stout.

black with ruby edges, wispy beige head, streaks of lace, light roasted aroma, sweet chocolate and roasted flavor, lots of milky swetness that goes great with the rich chocolate,

(Tap) Pours a inky black color with not much in the way of head. Sweet, roasted aroma. Flavor is relatively smooth, with coffee and burnt grain notes. Mouthfeel is not particularly strong, with a distinct lactose ending. Body is a little bit too thin for the style.

Big cocoa nose...almost to the point of artificiality. The pour was a flat looking dark brown with a thin residue of a dishwater-type head, The flavor and texture were flat and boring. Cocoa again...artificial tasting and forced, with some nutts, roated grain, and coffee. The texture was very, very watery and insubstantial.

On tap pours a dark brown with a tan ring of a head. Bakers chocolate in the aroma and flavor. Finishes with chocolate. That’s about it. Not too bad but nothing special.
