Equipment: 22 oz bottle served chilled in a Trois Pistoles goblet.
Appearance: Dark dark black with brown highlights that poured out a bit like some used motor oil. A light brown head formed and stuck around for a few sips before it decided to settle down to a small layer of thick and creamy foam.
Aroma: Rich roasted malts, prunes, and coffee aromas are quite prominent. Mild vanilla notes. Damn fine. Damn Damn fine.
Flavor: Chocolatey sweet roasted malts with vanilla aftertastes. In-farking-credible.
Palate: Earthy and robust, yet still silky smooth. Soothing.
Overall: Um... who do I have to kill to get some more of this? Must I bow down to Ba’Haaabah and sacrifice goats? I want a case of this, and I want it yesterday. Only bested by Oak Barrel Stout, IMHO, but it was a close match.
Other: Went great with some dark Belgian chocolate.

Dec 16, 2008 bomber thanks to mcox90. I had been wanting one of these for awhile. Pours dark brown with a nice tan head. Nose is of chocolate and became smoky as it warmed up. Taste was of chocolate and roast malt. Mouthfeel was medium and dry with a slight bitterness. Very nice.

Dec 14, 2008 Bomber shared by theisti at a Chiefs tailgate. Pours a deep opaque brown with a creamy light tan head. Milk chocolate, roasted malt and a lactose note are on the nose. It does not smell like a dry stout. Light to medium-bodied and creamy with soft carbonation. The flavor is of chocolaty, dry, roasted malt. Pretty nice. Thanks for sharing this with us, Tim.

Dec 8, 2008 Medium brown/ruby red pour with tan head and lace. Medium roasted malt that hints of chocolate. Light to medium hop bitter. Large coffee and roasted malt. Medium bodied a tad thin. Very nice beer.

Dec 5, 2008 This poured dark brown/black in color with a moderate light brown head. This had quite nice aromas of chocolate, rich coffee, sweet caramel and vanilla. In the mouth this was medium-bodied and started off powerful then faded to a dry/bitter finish. The midpalate lacked concentration and flavor though this should have been expected given the alcohol level.
