Dec 9, 2007 A fizzy and slowly/mostly receding beige head. Body is a super-deep brown, would be translucent if it were lighter. The nose is moderately roasty and fairly uninteresting, though no flaws are immediately evident and alcohol isn’t even remotely noticeable. Coffee and chocolate are light and creeping. Light hints of cedar encroach as warmth ensues. The flavor is progressively more interesting with each sip, but there is nothing memorable or particularly outstanding, other than good drinkability. Chocolate, coffee and roast are all mild and muddled into a soft and off-dry finish. The body is watery, light-medium, carbonation is light but prickly. Boring.

Dec 9, 2007 Pours a deep, burnt brown, nice head formation, but it vanishes oh too quickly. Aroma is a bit muted. There is a dank, acrid smoke component, reminds me of a day old cigar. A slight cola "twang" and even a hint of burnt sugar. Flavor is lean, with only a slight roasted flavor. Uninspired.

Dec 4, 2007 This is my personal favorite of all the beers that I’ve had the pleasure of drinking. It just seems to hit my taste buds just right.

Nov 28, 2007 12 oz bottle from mreusch; nose is roasty with light mocha; clear dark cherry brown with a medium cinnamon-tan head; flavor has some light smoke, coffee, and some light hop bitterness. Decent but no way great!

Nov 22, 2007 (Bottle) Pours a very dark brown color with a small tan head. Aroma is malty and slightly dusty as well. Roasted malts and light burnt caramel in the taste. Crisp, dry finish. Above average carbonation and thin body.

Oct 26, 2007 Poured nice with a thick light tan head. Head retention was long. Very low perception of aroma with just slight hints of roasted malts. Flavor profile has very little roasted malt flavor and has no finish (the dry part). Would not buy again and is a disappointing stout.
