can. Aroma of faint hops,chocolate milk and espresso. Very nice dark pour with a huge light brown head. Tasted like coffee or espresso. Very dry finish but at the same time came across very watery. I thought this would be a "heavy" beer and it wasn’t at all. Kind of odd but good.

Dark color with a creamy tan had that hangs around. Slightly roasted aroma with a smooth but bitter taste. Not Guinness, not even Murphy’s but still not bad.

Pours near opaque with a big creamy head. Aroma is of roasted barley. Taste is also of roasted malts. A good dry stout, much better than Guinness anyway and usually cheaper.

Boring, thin, below average overall. Needs more going on, not enough flavor or presence to find much specific fault. Amazingly thin for such a dark beer, even the N02 carb was off.

14.9 oz widget can. As with most of these gimmick cans, it makes for a pretty glass of beer - dark brown with a tight, creamy tan head. Roasty, burnt malt nose, hints of coffee. Ooofff... not so good flavor, like charcoal with a bit of lighter fluid, burnt and smoky. Body is the light side of medium, a bit too thin. Meh.

7 oz draught sample. Dark brown pour with medium frothy head. Aroma of coffee, burnt toast and nuts. Mild coffee taste with a bitter dry finish. Slightly watery, but not too shabby.
