Bottle. Appearance: Very dark brown with a thin tan head. Aroma: Roasted malt, bittersweet chocolate, some coffee, some smokeiness. Palate: Medium/full. Flavor. Bittersweet roasted chocolate malt, hops on the back of the tongue is pretty noticable, light coffee, develops a more smokey taste as it warms. Overall: Smooth drinking, finiished well, very good beer.

Sep 27, 2008 Pours black with a slight tan head. Aroma is of roasted coffee, chocolate, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Sticky mouth-feel. Taste is of roasted malt (coffee and chocolate) and some slight bitterness with a dry finish. Simple, straightforward example of a dry stout.

Sep 25, 2008 Bottle at Hi 5 Raleigh. Very dark brown colored stout with a medium sized light tan head that went down to a near-flat look. Roasty flavors, some caramel and bitter, chocolately notes. Not a blows-me-away kind of stout, but I did enjoy it and it left me wanting more brew.
