Oct 22, 2008 A minimal dark chocolate scent, with hints of smoke, reddish dark brown opaque, a minimal brown head, flavor was smokey, with a full bodied creamy finish that lasted an adequate amount. Overall a good beer that doesn’t live up to the hype.

Oct 17, 2008 Getting notebook online. Bottle. Pours a coffee black. Great roasted malt aromas. Real good malt flavors from the black and caramel malts. A surprisingly alcoholic mouthfeel. Real good stout.

Oct 16, 2008 Angry fist of Santa tasting at Chris o’s. Black, very dark brown, with thin tan head. Good stout. Lovely choc intense malt aroma. It’s a pretty good stout. Bitter finish. It’s good. Nothing exceptional, but smooth and bitter.

Oct 16, 2008 Bottle from Bello Vino Mkt. A beautiful, drinkable stout! Aroma and flavor are of a licorice plant growing from deep black soil. Faint notes of creme and whiskey round out a surprisingly drinkable ale. Brilliant.

Oct 15, 2008 Very good. Nice aroma chocolate, caramel, roast. Nice lacing on the glass. Pretty sweet but wont fall into the category because of the hoppy background. Well rounded stout. Usually one of the main picks during winter time or when im in a stout mood.

Oct 9, 2008 Nice dark color, easy going head smells a bit sweet, and musty.
What a great chocolate / bettersweet chocolate and a lite to lite mild roasted coffee lingering finish.
I like this stout because it’s poundable.
Very clean and great lingering flavor that makes you want more.

Oct 8, 2008 Bottle from my Bell’s variety pack... mmm... it had been a while since I first tried this one... deep and dark, brown foam... coffee & chocolate subtle aroma... taste of coffee, chocolate and a little sweet, maybe the molasses... I hate licorice, but this was perfect.. Don’t let the licorice description deter you from trying...

Oct 8, 2008 Bottle Chris O’s. Pours a thick dark ebony with a small off whitish head. Aroma: Rich and roasted ground coffee beans, bitter dark chocolate, slight charred carbon and alcohol. Flavour: good mothfeel that sticks to the back of your throat lingeing dark bitter choclate and coffee with some toffee and liquoirce to finish. Would prefer a little more body and creaminess but would drink again.
