Not quite black, but dark, dark brown with medium head. Roasted malt and slight chocolate aroma. Very full-flavored stout for 6%. Raw roasted malt and creamy chocolate. Very dry and slightly bitter finish. Nice beer from an under-appreciated brewery.

Aug 21, 2008 Black with brown highlights. Long lasting dense tan head. Faint roasy aroma. Creamy and rich flavor, not too roasty or burnt, clean and more satisfying than the porter.

Jul 20, 2008 Taste 7/8 Bottle(date?). Looks: Black and tan. Aroma: Chocolate, espresso, roast, wine. Taste: Smooth, flavorful at first, then a clean creaminess. A little hop on the tongue, more a feeling then a taste. Nice

Jul 19, 2008 Dark brown, initially robust brown head that rapidly fades without lace. Mostly brown bread aroma, with some burnt malt and dark fruit thrown in, but I’m not picking up any coffee or chocolate really (and I’m smelling the beer right now, as I type this review). On the palate, the fruit is coming forward to the point of overtaking the dark malts, distracting. The finish is quite bitter and astringent.

Jul 19, 2008 This is a great example of what a dry stout should taste like. even though their is little aroma and the palate is thin, the taste and dryness of the beer is great. slight coffee but not overpowering.
