3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20Smooth and mild. Chocolate and caramel notes, not overpowering. A subtle stout, but not unpleasant in any way. Not sure I can agree with a 100% rating, but certainly a very good offering.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Smells good but slightly off...taste is of bacon and smoke /slight chocolate....sour aftertaste...quite heavy
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Well done stout with a black pour and tan head. Smell of coffee and wood. Taste is roasted coffee, thin to medium.body, and lots of flavor. Decent stout that is easy to drink .
4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle dated 1/24/13. Poured into tulip. Served at 50 degrees.
Appearance - inky black with light brown head that stick around for a while.
Aroma - burnt malt, espresso, and dark chocolate dominate. Faint whiff of anise.
Taste - initial sweetness gives way to nice, ever so slightly bitter finish. Flavors follow aroma with slightly more licorice than aroma.
Mouthfeel - medium body with soft carbonation.
Overall - one could almost call this a session stout at 6% ABV, I now understand why this American stout is so talked about. Will definitely visit again.

3.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Black as oil. Smooth malty taste and on palate. Very nice for such a dark, flavorful beer. Minimal aroma.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Sweet and delicious. Light on the tongue, smooth in the mouth, with a sensational, flavor burst crescendo.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle - Jet black with a medium cola/chocolate head. Didn’t detect licorice as advertised (not a problem though). Has a mocha chocolate and a dark roasted coffee taste. Smoky on the back end. Decent.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Opaque pour indeed w/ a nice tan head that leaves a tiny ring of lacing. Aroma is fairly malty but nothing really stands out. The mouthfeel is medium bodied but really creamy. Taste is a little roasty but just screams stout. Nothing too fancy going on here - just an excellent version of the style.
4.4 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Has a pleasant Aroma of chocolate. It is deep black. This has a great combination of chocolate, caramel, and malt. It really balances sweet, and creamy really well. This is a top stout.
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: MAY 18, 2013 Thick, strong and perfect... feeling too lazy for a good review right now, but trust me, this beer is fucking orgasm-of the-mouth awesome.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours black with a big, creamy, tan head that dissipates slowly into a cap. Had aromas of roasted coffee, milk chocolate, and vanilla. Nice and sweet going down, and a nice vanilla and milk chocolate aftertaste. Had a real thin, almost watery feel in the mouth. I like it better when they double the malt and add five times the hops.
