3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle at the trustee. Jet black oily pour with little to no head. Nice lacing. Burnt malts and molasses dominate the aromas. Some bitter dark chocolate and roasted malts combine nicely in the taste. Hint of sweetness in there as well. Smooth on the palate. Very easy drinking stout. Good stuff

4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
A-- Poured dark, near black cola color and settled black. No light penetrating this at all. Short lived dark leather color head. Quickly dies off and leaves no lacing at all. Same when swirled. Best height on head is one and half fingers.
S-- Coffee, chocolate and and earthy pungent smell that has a bit of fresh cut grass in this. Some stewed strawberries or possibly rhubarb with the smell.
T-- Coffee acidity sourness and chocolate, bakers chocolate that is. Big bite of the coffee acidity to start with this. Also quite earthy in the taste.
M-- Acidity slows down in the mouth and smooths out to just coffee and chocolate. Very smooth and finishes with a good amount of sweet coffee acidity to finish. Medium body and higher medium feel.
O-- True to style and does quite well at it. Feels a lot bigger than the ABV leads on. Quality beer that for the ABV will age well and get more complex with age. On par with some of the better Foreign Exports that are out there. One of the better beers made in Australia that flys under the radar.

UPDATED: AUG 7, 2012 Wasn’t expecting much at all but very happy with this brew, especially after their charger lager. Pours a thick, oily looking black with a big tan head. Burnt wood are a ncie change in the aroma with the additions of mocha and molasses. Heavy roasted malts with some bitter chocolate and roasted coffee to finish. Long lasting.
