| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jul 29, 2008 Dark brown with a nice light brown head, looks a little like coke... Sweet malty aroma, hops, some... earth? Am I fooled by the looks or can I feel the coke in aroma too? Taste is even sweeter and maltier, also with hops, a hint of burnt/roasted. Lasting aftertaste and thick in mouth. Not really a fantastic beer but I can definitely have more of this. sebletitje (1903), Tampa, Florida, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 14, 2008 Wow! Very nice. Lacing good. Head good. Chocolate color. Not complex. Best part is the flavor of chocolate and coffee that hits you on the back side. Next to now bitterness. Beautiful aroma of complex malts. Winner winner chicken dinner! satan165 (564), River Grove, Illinois, USA
