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.

Strong aroma, coffee, roasty, cake, but you got to love stout, otherwise it is over the top. The head last for ever, lively, creamy.

Avery OoBS, has a great caramel aroma mixed with the traditional stout aromas of coffee, and to a lesser extent, chocolate. There is a hazelnut note to the aroma as well. It’s deep mahogany with a nice tan head that leaves a sponge cake lacing. The flavor is a little odd, some roast coffee, with a strange salty malty. A bit "crackery" and 1D compared to some others. The palate is a bit thin and watery, being the main downside to this beer. Still, it’s not intended to be an imperial stout, and is more the sort of thing that I can imagine most people who fancy themselves stout drinkers (in the wider public) would enjoy. Certainly it’s better than a guinness.

Bottle. Pours nice and black. Very roasty aroma. Taste is bittersweet chocoloate with alot of roast up front. Nice dry finish. A quality stout by any standard.

on tap at Andy’s Corner Bar. Black with a nice off white head. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee. Taste is is nice and roasty, with chocolate and bitterness from the roasted malt throughout the palate- maybe some hop bitterness as well. very nice.

12 oz bottle from Arctic Liquors online. Average size tan head, Dissipates quickly down to 1/2". Beer is black. Very thick pour. Roasted coffe/chocolate aroma. Medium bodied. Strong wallop on the intial taste. Bitter coffee flavor. Finishes with a lingering bittersweet aftertaste, more bitter than sweet and loses it’s flavor in the dry finish. Less hop and more malt and alcolhol would improve this. Well carbonated and just a tad too hoppy. Take away the black color and the aroma and this actually tastes more like an IPA than a stout. Will try it again.

In the bottle. Pours tar black with a large brown head that produced big volcanic foam bubbles. Web-like lacing. Sweet caramel and coffee roasted aromas. Hazelnut and chocolate as well. Flavor has a strong roasted taste. Much more roasted than toasted. Great malt body that is indeed a bit milky. Milk tart finish with plently of last minute emerging hop flavor. Not a smooth stout, but very flavorful. UPDATE 11/2006: Giant foamy monster head. beige in color with fairly large bubbles. The head is the consistency of concrete. The body is a bit watery for such a thick as a brick appearance. Has a strong bitter roasted coffee flavor.

Pours dark brown/black with a small tan head. Mostly lasting, some lacing. The aroma is light, some roast, chocolate and molases. The flavor is roasty, slightly burnt, molases. The mouthfeel is light and slightly thin.

Interesting. The flavor of this one doesn’t quite match the mouthfeel. It is very dark and roasty, but thin on the palate. I think I’ll need another bottle to be sure.
