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.

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.

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...

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.

Bottle at chris_o’s pre beerexposed tasting. Alround rating: Roasty, thin, not really much going on, pritty boring stuff and not really my style. I cannot see for the life of me how this could get such a high rating.

Delicious stout, big chocolate flavor up front, roasty and smooth, with a dry bitter chocolate finish. Slight scent of licorice, lingering coffee notes in the finish. Pours black with a smooth brown head. Just really well built in every way.

Bottle @ Chris_o’s Pre-Beer Exposed Tasting, September 2008.
Pours impressively black with a small, creamy, staying, brown head. Sweet aroma, lots of chocolate and coffee. Low carbonation, wonderful, creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is impeccably elegant. Sweet, light dryness, coffee, cocoa. Stunningly balanced and only 6 %. Great.

Pours jet black with a tan head. The aroma is big coffee. The flavor is largely coffee, with some background chocolate notes. It has a heavy body with low-medium carbonation. This a delicious stout! It is like espresso beer.
