Bottle from Sean in trade. This one was excellent in the palate and consistency. The flavor was a rich version of typical dry stouts, even some slight sweetness. Chocolate and coffee flavors were present and nicely tamed in the brew. I can see why this beer was rated so highly in the 1990s, however there are significantly more dry stouts out there now to win gold at the WBC. Good beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

This beer rates pretty damn high. Which honestly I don’t get. It’s a nice decent drinkable stout but it’s not mindblowing. Maybe I’m wanting to much these days, I don’t know. It tastes session able but really it’s almost 7% abv so it’s not really session able. Maybe I had an old bottle or something.

On the 9th day of Christmas, Chalsk’s beer gods gave to me...Pours dark chocolate in color with a decent caramel bubbly head. The aroma a bit smokey with a rich almost coffee grind aroma. The flavor has notes of coffee and roasted malts on a lighter body. It is simple in a delicious way, a great drinking stout.
