Dec 27, 2008 Bottle from Pizza Port. Black with a fizzy tan head. Roasty chocolate and citrus hops aroma and taste. Like the porter but bigger.

Dec 13, 2008 A very smooth and tasty stout. Very good balance and flavor. Mix of milk chocolate, coffee and malt. Pours pitch black with very little head.

Dec 8, 2008 Solid black pour with a light brown head. Strong roasted malt and coffee aromas. Flavors are also of roasted malt and other grain. A somewhat creamy mouthfeel, peaty, just a faint hint of dark chocolate. Finishes a with a very crips coffee bitterness. Lingers quite a while. Aftertaste makes you believe you literally drank a stiff black coffee. Becomes a bit overly bitter if it warms too much. A good version of the style and very sessionable, just dont let it sit too long.

Dec 4, 2008 Bottle. Heavy aromas of dark coffee, pumpernickel bread, toasted, and cereal for the malts, moderate resin for the hops, light earth for the yeast and tar in the background. Head is average size, frothy, light brown with excellent lacing and is mostly lasting. Color is black. Flavor starts moderately sweet and lightly acidic, and the long finish is moderately bitter. Palate is medium, creamy and has a soft carbonation. A pretty good Dry Stout with a bite to it

Nov 21, 2008 Flaske. Kæmpe skumhoved, der tog 5 minuter for at lægge sig. Rigtig solid lækker stout med en tand ristet smag, og en del humle. Men fint afbalanceret. God øl.

Nov 19, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Roasty, coffee-e, some fruitiness in it somewhere. Interesting flavors in there, kinda yummy, but not as intense as just about every other Avery.

Oct 28, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a dark dark dark brown almost black with a creamy, finger-width, light brown head. Dissipates pretty slowly and remains quite lacy. Good looking stout. Mellow aroma of mostly milk chocolate with some light roasts, caramel malts, and bittering hops. Flavor is similar. Mostly backended. Mildly roasty and chocolatey with a really enjoyable bitter ending. Not as potent as other stouts, but very nice for a lower ABV. Pretty well balanced and light to medium bodied. Overall, nice flavor and great lingering bitterness. A very nicely done stout.
