Pours very dark brown/black with good head that sticks around and leaves nice lacing on the side of the glass. Nose catches a very strong coffee aroma mixed with the heavy roasted scent. Flavor is of a bit of coffee at the start followed by a little bit of chocolate and then finishes off just a little on the sweet side. The roasted malty flavor sticks around quite well along with a dry feeling on the tongue. Overall, an ok beer to have every now and then.

Black brown in color which looks identical to pepsi. Smell is figs and sweet raisins. Watery flavor with a hint too much of this strange sugar sweetness. Dry finish and thin palate - nothing to really write home about.

12 oz bottle. Poured nearly black with a thin off-white head. Sweet roasted malt aroma. Roasted coffee flavors with a good dry finish. Thin body, like it should have.

Pours fairly dark black with a small beige head. Smell is faint dark fruit and roasted malts. Not too strong, and almost a cherry note. Taste is thin and watery dark malt with a hint of tartness again. A bit of a drying character, but too thin and unremarkable to recommend. Not very good.

I try not to fall victim to the "hey, we’re making stout now" craze that seems to sweep up the more ’corporate’ of the micro brews. I wasn’t going to try this one either but at 4.95 a sixer........nuff said. Different lable, same problem. Have any of these folks ever tried a stout, a real stout full of creamy goodness? At best we have a fairly drinkable porter. It is not opaque, it is black like a black lager or ale. Light colored head of large bubbles that dissapear way to quickly. Initial taste is lightly sweet chocolate that dissolves quickly into very very faint coffee and smoke. You are left with a very dry palate and a tounge that is still stinging from the carbonation. Very drinkable, not bad as simply a descent beer, but not a stout. Stout should go down like skim milk. With fine bubbles sticking to the side of your glass. You take the second swallow and you close your eyes and the angels begin to sing, you see your ancestors reaching out for you from a beige cloud. Arth Guinness is there, and he is making out with your great aunt Cloe...... UPDATE: Shook bottle and poured into pint glass. After the foaming and setling the carbo was way less overpowering. Much better beer this way. Great flavor! Head stayd with the beer all the way down. I would have another, in fact i think i will.

Pours total black with small white head. Nose of roasted coffee and chocolate, with some flowery hops coming through. Tastes of burnt chocolate and coffee. Mouthfeel was much too watery for a stout. Not a good representation of the style.
