Bottle. Pours dark brown with amber edges and a very thin beige head. The aroma is like toasted rye bread, with some chocolate and coal hints in there. The rye really comes out in the flavor, accompanied by some muted coffee and earth notes. The finish is almost identical to rye bread. All around quite drinkable.

Poured a dark brown to black with a foamy tan to brown head. Aromas were somewhat mild to me nothing huge jumping out at me mild roasted mal nd rye with a light scent of toffee. flavor had a unique flavor beyond the malt and sweet flavor it was almost a vegetable flavor to it that I could not finger. Not much spice there as it is described..

Bottle from siciliano’s. Batch 9370. Opaque dark brown to black with creamy, medium beige head. Aroma is slightly sulphury upfront with rich roast and chocolate, dry spice. Flavor is rye spice, rich roast, cocoa, slight cold coffee, nuttiness. Medium to light, creamy body with medium carbonation. Real unique, I think this would be great BA beer if they decide to throw it in a barrel.

On tap at the Institute in Philly. Nearly opaque black with a white, wispy head. Aroma of burnt toast, nuts, coffee, some distinct spiciness too. Flavor is solid, milk chocolate, oatmeal, sweet. Full bodied, a little sticky. The rye adds some complexity that some other stouts don’t have.

12 oz bottle from Ohiodad(thanks!).Pours a near black with a small tan head. Nose is of roasted coffee and rye. That is pretty much the taste along with some lactose and possibly some oats. Well carbonated fizzy finish. The rye is actually fairly subdued. Thin bodied and sessionable. No alcohol detected. Nice easy drinking stout. Bells seems to never do wrong.
