Delicious appearance. It is dark and creamy appearing with a late forming small dark tan head. The aroma is sweet malt and roastiness which is what you would expect out of a stout. Body is middle of the road for the style. Flavor is robust and is sweet malt with some coffee. Didn’t taste any chocolate here. There is some late bitterness and a nice zestiness in the mouth throughout. This was a great drinking beer.

Aug 16, 2008 Very dark walnut brown, surprisingly lively bubbly head that requires three installments in the pour to avoid spillage. Mouthfeel is smooth and slightly creamy despite such an effervescent intro. Aroma is of rich roast with elements of chocolate and coffee, and a hint of smoke. The palate has no smoke at all, with a sweet roasted character and soundly bitter finish. Very nice.

Aug 13, 2008 Bottle from Total Wine in Roseville, CA. Poured a black color with a tan head. Smelled of sweet chocolate and coffee. If you like sweet this beer it for you. Sweet chocolate and oatmeal dominated the flavor. A smooth medium-bodied beer. WOW!!

Aug 12, 2008 I had this pegged for a sweet stout. I could taste the sweet chocolate and hints of oatmeal. Very nice flavor and excellent palate. This is a smooth drinking, light stout. I don’t usually dig the thinner stouts, but this one was great.
