Bottle. Deep brown in colour with a lasting beige coloured head. The aroma was of cold coffee, slate caramel malts, mild roast. The flavour was of coffee, chocolate malts, slightly sweet, some vanilla and cream. Dry mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finish is similar to that of old coffee, a bit thin, dry. Still quite nice.

Dark with a loosely formed off-white head. Somewhat lactic aroma on a roasted base. Good basic flavor components of roasted qualities, chocolate, and some blueberries. Mild oily palate, not overly carbonated. Good decent all-around stout, though not exceptional in any dimension. Thanks Sanjay for bringing beers from Maine!

Indy gathering 2005. This bottled brew poured a head of foamy of long lasting bubbles. The body contained no visible carbonation, was opaque and dark black as a starless night in color. Its aroma contained notes of mild dark malts. Its mouth feel is smooth and mild with a malty mellow palate and a malty aftertaste. Its flavor contained dark malty notes.
