Sep 6, 2008 Pours a four finger beige head that fades slowly to a thin layer, leaving some lace. Deepest mahogany color. Good carbonation and heavy bodied. Burnt coffee nose. Flavor has hints of malty sweetness but burnt coffee dominates. $6.49 for a 22oz bottle from Manchester Wine and Liquors Manchester, CT.

Sep 5, 2008 Bottle from Crown Liquors. Almost a black pour with a small brown head. Aroma is nice enough. Roasted malts, chocolate, espresso, etc. Flavor is hoppier and toastier than I prefer my stouts. dont get me wrong, it is a pretty well done beer...just not my favorite type of stout. Finish is dry and a tad bitter.
