Bottle: The aroma consists of moderate chocolate, roasted malt, light nuttiness, and a slight hint of fruit. It pours a dark brown with no transparency and a two finger beige head with decent retention. Some thin webbing is left on the sides of the glass. The flavor starts with a quick dose of dark chocolate. There’s a touch of sweet cocoa in the background. The finish has roasted malt, nuts, and light coffee.

Bomber Bottle, this beer had a black-brown pour and made a tan colored head that was more than a finger high, this beer was dark and opaque but I could see bubbles flowing up the sides of the glass, it left spots and fingers of lacing on the sides of the glass, the aromas were roasted malt, chocolate with a hint of coffee, and there was some malt and chocolate sweetness, the roasted malt was out front and the chocolate was in the background, the flavors were roasted malt with a little chocolate, the finish had a little bitterness, the mouth feel was a little thin, and had lively carbonation, a ok drink.

oily black pour, notes of oatmeal, drank from pint glass, poured from 1 pint 6 fl oz glass bottle, mild aroma and palette, pleasant aftertaste that brings out the flavor ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Draught. typical color. No head or lace. Aroma of light chocolate, soy. Taste similar moderately sweet and a late light bitterness. The finish is salty, vegetal, or metallic. Body is medium and oily. Not terrible but not enjoyable.

Predominantly coffe and chocolate with hints if oatmeal. Somewhat bitter an slightly infected

Review from notes at World of Beer - Fort Myers on 11/17/11. Poured on draft into a shaker pint glass. Appearance: Pours a dark woody brown with a 1/2 finger medium tan head. Decent lacing. Smell: Earthy malt with a light touch of roasted malt. Taste: Roasted malt up front followed by sweet citrus in the middle before ending with unsweetened chocolate at the finish. Aftertaste is unsweetened chocolate. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied with a high amount of carbonation. Drinkability: Decent drinkability. You wouldn’t want more than a couple. Overall: Decent beer overall. It doesn’t taste anything like what I expect from an oatmeal stout. I wouldn’t recommend this one.

Tap, Bohemian Hall, Queens, 17/12/11. Thick yellow-tan collar on a pitch body. In this light, anyway. Grilled veg, dusted cocoa, mellow burnt milk choc taste rubbed with charcoal and vanilla. Very successfuly captures the soft, sessionable beauty of a UK stout. Felt very at home wandering around with a pint of this in my hand. Beer of The Trip So Far? Not had Lagunitas Sucks yet.

10/19/11. On tap. Not quite black pour, dark brown, with a thick, fluffy tan head that sticks forever but doesn’t lace much. Very light aroma of chocolate and muted roast. Soft flavor of milk chocolate and a lingering hint of roast. Overall, the flavors are on, and there isn’t a lot wrong with the flavors, but the beer is pretty thin, almost watery. There is a very nice smooth, silky mouthfeel, though.

i really enjoy this beer served in part with the blue point blue berry, known as the black and blue. but by itself it is a more than respectable beer. it has an average alcohol content despite its appearance that most dark beers acquire. blue point does call it a meal in a glass so be prepared to be full. but also done ignore the strong chocolate flavor, roasted malt flavor and full stomach you will taste and feel.
