Draught from blue star. Poured a watery black. Mild chocolate and coffee. Okay.

(Draught/Nitro) Pours an opaque black body with a medium cream head. Aroma of roasted malt, lactose, and cocoa. Flavor of roasted malt, lactose, toasted grain, burnt coffee grains, and somewhat dirtiness with a dry finish.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear dark brown with a thin off white head. Good coffee aroma. Watery. Too watery. Thin mild roastedness. Disappointing.

On tap at the brewpub. The look is clear, dark brown, with a light beige colored head. The smell is malts, roast, chocolate. The taste is dry, some bitterness, roasty, and not really that good.

On cask at the brewpub. The look is dark brown clear, and a thin head. The smell is malts, toast, tart, roasty. Slight infection going on. The taste is slight tartness, roast, malts.

Black. Sustained medium head. Nice nose of coffee. Very thin in the mouth. No palate. Yuck, tastes like amateur home brew.
