| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 28, 2006 Thanks to Me for bringing this beer back from Maine last March.
Stout pours with a nearly opaque ink black body. The head is deep shade of khaki. It pours large but fades quickly into oblivion… & there sits a stout.
The aroma is sweet, fruity and chocolaty. The flavor offers thoughts of plums, date sugars, milk chocolates, licorice, and molasses. The palate is a bit chalky, and is particularly dry in the finish. A very nice beer… would fare well on cask!

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Sep 23, 2006 Bomber thanks to ambergirl! Poured a clear, very deep burgundy with garnet highlights... short creamy layer of beige head. Roasted cocoa and dark chocolates at the first whiff.. with a wonderful deep espresso and licorice presence wafting through beneath. Delicate and complex flavor profile, showcasing an excellent blend of deeply-roasted dark malts (milkier and dark chocolates, espresso, licorice, and soy).. with some airy and complimentary herbal & oaky bitterness. Dry on the palate with smooth malts across the middle. Long, dry, and roasty finish with a mild herbal bitterness. Excellent! thornecb (1757), Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA
