Mar 24, 2006 Rich dark color that pours thick with a tan head. The aroma is that of chocolate and coffee. There is a sweet hoppiness on the palate wtih slight lingering.

Mar 14, 2006 A thick black body with a creamy, although thinner, chocolate head. I very nice mouthfeel that is not to sweet nor dry. Hints of nuts and roasted flavors. A very accessible stout, could certainly drink this often

Mar 13, 2006 Pours a thick, deep black with garnet highlights and a creamy, tan head that deflates slowly. I found some floral lily notes in the aroma amidst the strong coffee roasts. Creamy mouthfeel with a flavor that alternates effortlessly between sweet chocolate and bitter coffee. Sweet and fruity yet savory notes after, adding a mouthwatering saltiness to the finish.
P.S. I might have me a "collector’s item" bottle as mine ended up with the back label from AVBC Summer Solstice!

Mar 11, 2006 (22oz Bottle. 03/2006 ... etc.) Thick, viscous, black. Creamy, brown head. Dark chocolate and roasted, almost but not quite coffee, notes. Earthy. Almost no hop bitterness but a definite balance as the finish is clean and dry. Big, velvety mouthfeel with a medium-full body. Long lingering rich, dark maltiness.

Mar 11, 2006 Bottle. Thick black color with creamy brown head. Not a whole lot in the nose-- some faint dark chocolate, roasted barley, and earthy hops. Very well balanced flavors of roasted barley, dark and milk chocolate, coffee, and piney hops. Creamy mouthfeel with smooth carbonation, medium body, and a pleasant lingering chocolate and coffee aftertaste. Really nice!
