Feb 16, 2008 Had on draft at Brews. Pour was dark brown with nice creamy tan head. Aroma was all coffee. Taste was pretty much dry roasted coffee. I did not taste the barrell aged, or any hint of sweetness in this one. Easy drinker, but the flavors did not jump out as I had hoped.

Feb 15, 2008 Pour is a dark black with a large tan head. Aroma is chocolate and coffee with a hint of the oak, I think that is what they were going for in this beer. Flavor is a super rich coffee, almost like an espresso. Finish has a bit of the oak. Not oaked out the wazoo like some beers but a decent stout with just the right amount of the oak-aging going on.

Feb 14, 2008 Just a kiss of oak adds to the roasty sweet medium body. Smooth, but bitter enough to wake up your taste buds. Nicely done stout.

Feb 13, 2008 Poured a dark ruby color from a 22-oz bottle with a big beige head. Aroma of dried fruit along with chocolate and a hit on oak. The taste was of roasted malt, chocolate with some woody and vanilla flavors coming through. Was very smooth.

Feb 12, 2008 (22oz bottle) Very dark brown topped by persistent and slightly rocky tan head that leaves nice lacing. Aroma is moderately sweet, coffee/roast, fudge/milk chocolate, confectionery sugar. Taste is roast/coffee, some nut/salty, cocoa/chocolate, earthy, light wood. Some earthiness, but most of the bitterness is from the coffee maltiness. Smooth medium body, no sign of alcohol.
