Jul 17, 2009 Batch 4 is very nice. I love rich sweet stouts, and this one packs a wallop. The inkiness draws me in and wraps me up in the wonderful world of stout. What a great year for great beer!

Strong coffee and liquorice aroma. Warming alcohol feeling, dry roasted grain, but the alcohol overpowers it all.

Jul 1, 2009 Batch 2. As dark as dark brown can be without being pure black with a light tan head. Aroma of chocolate liquer and dark fruit. Woah now, booze booze booze flavor. It’s not my thing and hard to get over frankly. There’s a lot going on here, but 16% that’s not very hidden is a bit too strong for my beer drinking tastes.
