RaginCajun (269), Dallas, Texas, USA Sep 7, 2008 Dark brown body with a small but persistent head. Lots of roasted malts in the aroma, very inviting. The nose is all malts and it fades quickly into a slight hop finish. Very reminiscent of Guinness, but tastier. Good session beer.
arrogantb (41), Denver, Colorado, USA Jan 4, 2009 12oz bottle, good deal at $5.49 per sixer. Deep, dark black with a light tan head that was initially quite huge but is now a thin layer of foam. Decent stouty molasses smell but it is way down there. Easy flavor, no roast, malty, no molasses, hops? This is a good beer for the money but not my favorite stout by any means.
