3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20 kuphish (351) - Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA - JUL 30, 2009
Bottle. Pours a medium, light brown, creamy head. Opaque, black body proves to have some ruby when held up to light. Light roast and chocolate come through in the nose. Flavor contains some coffee, roast, a touch of ash and a little crystal sweetness. Light, somewhat thin body with fairly lively (for the style) carbonation. Overall a pretty good dry stout. Less carbonation, a slightly fuller body and a touch more roastiness would really round it out. Quite enjoyable nonetheless.

Dark brown pour into THICK foamy tan head that slowly dissipates into sticky lacing on the glass. Aroma of rich dark chocolate malt and dark roast cofee. Initial flavor of smoky dark roasted chocolate malt fading into a bitter dry roasted chocolatey finish.

On tap at the tasting room. The lightest beer they make. Nitrogen powered with a subtle chocolate nose. Gorgeous black color with a bright white head. Lighter (and fresher) than Guinness. Slightly sweet on the tongue. Glass begs you to drink it all day long. Very different tasting than the bottled variety.
