Commercial Description:
This big, roasty stout takes flavor to the extreme. We aren't afraid to use plenty of rich roasted barley and a mountain of hops to give this full-bodied stout that little extra something you've been looking for in a beer.

Pours fizzy black with medium mocha head. Aroma of chocolate and almost nutty maltiness. Flavor is predominately chocolate with a good amount of roastiness. Very flavorful for a 5.1%. Nice dry finish. Another good one from Avery.

Pours black with a thin dense light tan head. Light cocoa and roast aromas, maybe a hint of licorice. Light on the palate. A good deal of roast in the taste, with a some mild cocoa notes. Nice dry roasty finish. Very drinkable and tasty.

Pours black with garnet highlights and a rocky, tan head that laces nicely. The nose is of molasses, chocolate and roasted malts. The mouthfeel is medium/full-bodied, tacky, and lively with a roasted bitter finish. The flavor is molasses, light chocolate, and roasted malts with a dry, bitter roasted finish. I was hoping for a bit more of the chocolate flavor to come through, but it’s quite tasty nevertheless. This is one of my favorite dry stouts.

Bottle. Opaque black with a medium-sized, rocky head that lasts. Aroma is chocolate, lemon grass, and smoke. Flavor is a nice combination of all the same. The use of more lemon-grassy hop flavors in this stout is most welcome, providing a great balance to the strong roasted barley flavors. Too many stouts are so dominated by roasted barley that you may as well drink coffee instead. This one is refreshingly more hop-balanced. Palate is medium-to-full bodied, smooth and not overly dry.

Bottle. Black colour with a huge rocky light brown head. Rich aroma and taste of roasted malts, cofee and chocolate. Semi dry finish. Softly carbonated.

Almost black pour with a big tan head. Aroma is of coffee, malts, cocoa. Flavor is sort of metallic malts, roast, coffee and bitter chocolates. Body is a tad thin but still an overall decent stout.

12 oz. bottle - jet black with almost no head upon pouring; sweet malty aromas that drinks smooth w/ a bitter aftertaste

Appearance: Pours dark chestnut brown with some faint reddish hues around the edges. Sturdy tan head settles slowly with sporadic lacing throughout. Smell: Full of French Roast coffee and rich carob. Handful of black walnuts. Boiled sugar. Also, there’s a vague, but noticeable blueberry fruitiness. Taste: Gah! The bitter, roasted flavors border on tasting unpleasantly ’burnt’; its like charcoal, and I find it thoroughly contemptable. Don’t look for sweetness in the flavor, for you will find none. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin, though some ashy qualities keep it from going down smooth. The finish overshoots past simply being dry and ends up considerably coarse. Drinkability: Well, I suppose. "But," I’d quickly retort, "There’s a vast world of superior stouts out there to be had."
