Jul 9, 2008 Very dark pour. Big brown head. Very toasty and malty. Lasting finish. Lots of malt. Good beer but not my favorite stout

Jun 20, 2008 Pours very dark with a crimson hue and a deep tan / brown head. The aroma has roasted malt, cream and vanilla. Medium body with a moderate amount of carbonation. The flavor starts with very roasted malt, spicy / woody hops and sharp fruitiness. The finish is long and quite bitter. A decent stout.

Jun 19, 2008 The 12 ounce bottle poured an almost black beverage with a smooth creamy average sized tan head that was mostly lasting and left great lacing on the glass. The aroma was big. There were prominent notes of roasted barley and cherries with more subtle hints of leather, grass and molasses. The body was medium with a slightly sharp carbonation and a somewhat watery texture. The flavor starts lightly bitter and the bitterness grows through the middle to a moderate level and then stays there through the medium finish

Jun 18, 2008 bottled, well rounded roasted notes, nice thick black pour with small chocolate head that left quickly, smoky and roasted combo on tongue with strong hop bitterness on the back of the palate, not bad but not as smooth as expected.

Jun 17, 2008 On cask at the brewery. Dark, creamy looking body. NIce big head from the cask. Smokiness on the nose with a charred coffee flavor on the tongue. Has a nice kick of hops too. Quite tasty brew. Don’t know what it’s like from the bottle though.

Jun 16, 2008 Poured a dark mahogany brown with red highlights at the glasses edge. There was a nice tan foamy head. The aroma was of a chocolate malt. The flavor was dark chocolate and espresso with a mild bitterness on the finish that was slightly dry on the palate. Nice beer.

Jun 14, 2008 12oz bottle-pours a rich brown head and black color with red tint. Aroma is rich dark malt with some sweetness. Taste is bitter dark chocolate-rich dark malt, chicory/bitter/acidic hops. As it warms, aroma adds chocolate, taste adds chocolate/molasses.

Jun 13, 2008 This brew pours a deep black opaque colour with a fairly large tan head. Aromas of oak, smoke chocolate and coffee, it has a firm mouthfeel, moderately dry with a whirlpool of flavors. Coffee, cocoa, tobacco and beef jerky. It has this effect on the palate because of its dryness that induces this watery reaction in my mouth which accents the taste and brings out more flavors. Overall, wicked tastey, one of the best stouts ive tasted in a while
