Very, very good stout. I’m a little surprised at the negative ratings on here. My Dad and I were in town for the Miss GA pageant (Columbus) and went downtown and we found this place. They were out of the ale, so we got this. Glad we did. This is everything a stout should be. Its dark and kind of sweet. Has a really nice grain-taste to it. You can really taste the grains. Not much hops, but you do notice them. I was pleasantly surprised. One of the better stouts I’ve had.

Feb 23, 2008 Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is rich with roast and lightly sweet chocolate and light coffee. There is also a cream, lactose-like sweetness as well. Maybe a bit too sweat at times. Taste starts with decent roast and some woodsy bark. But then all of a sudden BAM! coffee just hits you halfway through. Its a ground espresso bean coffee flavor. Some of that lactose/cream sweetness as well. <br />Sampler @ brewpub.

Jan 11, 2005 Opaque black and brown with full tan head. I’ve had this several times and the taste varies from bitter to sweet. When its fresh the maltiness comes out more and is not all that heavy for a stout. When its been setting around awhile the bitterness picks up and is only decent as a finish.
