Nov 1, 2009 Bottle from Chevy Chase courtesy of the Bang-Golly Foods Beer Club. This was not good at all. I was hoping for so much more in terms of flavor and texture and was roundly disappointed. Nose was a burnt coffee-and-grains mess. Flavor was much the same with a very mediocre porter quality about it. Tasted like that bottle of Arctic Rhino I rated earlier this year. My God this was pointless.

Nov 1, 2009 Pours deep chocolate brown. Aroma is mildly smoky, chocolate, vanilla, roasted sweet malts, touch of soy and coffee. Pretty smooth flavor, slightly smoky, lots of dark bitter chocolate, slight bitterness on the end. Good stout.

Oct 29, 2009 Bottle. Black pour with some dark head. Definitely get some lactose, chocolate, other coffee and sweet malts, could use a stronger coffee and roaster character. Decent brew, but far from the best at bells.

Oct 26, 2009 Great roasted coffee aroma and smell, toasted malts. Sweet, creamy, stouty and full bodied. Not as good as the bourbon barrel aged double cream/expedition stout though, by far. Still yummy.

Oct 24, 2009 bottle, pours black with a thin off white head. Aroma is nice with carmel, condensed milk, and a light black patent malt note. Roasted coffee rides a sweet sugary note that finishes dry. Moderate carbonation, mildly crisp mouthfeel.
