Commercial Description:
This is a full-bodied stout with plenty of roast flavor as well as hints of molasses and chocolate. Ridiculous amounts of black and caramel malts make this stout smooth, creamy, and utterly opaque.

A very rich, creamy stout with hints of coffee and very dark roasted malts. Very heavy on the tongue leaving you with the impression you are drinking a cream just like a good strong stout should be.

very good beer that has a rich aroma and it great to the taste. A bit strong for people who are used to lower alc content such as bud or miller. but if you enjoy your beer with a rich malt flavor, this is your beer. Get it in Kalamazoo MI.

Lots of dark fruit in this one, specifically raisins, in addition to the lovely roasty notes that you usually get from a stout. Man, I wish I lived somewhere that Bells distributed...

Pours black with a medium tan head if poured roughly. Aroma is a heavy roast, sweet chocolate, and coffee. Flavor roasted malt, sweet chocolate, coffee, and bit of caramel especially in the aftertaste. Nice balanced sweet stout. Could drink this all day.

bottle, sampled 3/14/07. Pours a thick, dark, flat brown with an inch+ of dark tan head. Aroma shows plenty of toasted malts, a healthy dose of booze, and some dark bittersweet notes. Flavor follows, with plenty of smooth, dark semi-sweet roasted grains and some light bitterness. Licorice notes show up in the flavor, though not overpowering or dominant. Light booze notes round out the flavor. Flavor on this on lacks some depth, but without detriment- a nice, simple-ish well brewed stout. Palate is very smooth and clean with an even finish.
