Commercial Description:
A deep, dark stout with lots of rich and hearty roasted barley flavor, and even some notes of dried fruit if you've got a discerning enough palate...

Bottle. Dark black-brown body with a brownish foamy head. The aroma smells like chocolate, toffee, and is typically quite dry. Tates pretty nice with an active carbonation and coffee and bitter chocolate flavours.

This is a very nice extra stout - though I’m not a big fan of extra stouts. Somewhat bitter and dry, it was a bit tough to enjoy the whole bomber because of the lack of sweetness to balance out the bitterness

[1049-20080112] 1pt9.4floz (c/o HogTownHarry, w/ him, garthicus, jerc, mds, Radek Kliber). Raisin dark malt roast aroma. Dark black brown body with a big medium-lasting foamy light tan head. Boozy raisin fig roast malt flavour has a hint of vanilla chocolate. Full body is bubbly. Nice.

Bottle (750ml). Shared with garthicus, jerc, mabel, Radek Kliber and mds - my bottle. Near opaque brown-black with a huge light brown fluffy lasting head. Very dry aroma, medium roast malt, light pungent spice, a little acidic. Taste followed - quite spicy, a hint of sourness, decent straightforward roast malt, long and dry/acidic finish. Very average body, well-balanced between roast malt, mild bitterness and acidity - solid.

Bottle. Brown tinged black body with a moderate creamy tan head. Roasty, lightly acidic malt aroma. (7+) Sweet malty base, roasty lightly acidic accents. Smooth lively palate. Decent.

Bottle - Dirty brown head with a black body. Aroma; Turf & coffee. It has a warming coffee peat flavour. Not a bad drop at all.

Bottle: Poured with a red-tinged black color and a head of thinly laced head. The aroma is light, almost sour-like, not really hinting at much beneath. This drinks with a bit of a watery consistency, with the first impression being not much more than an ashy chocolate thinness. It gets a tad richer as it warms, but still never really fully lives up to it’s visual promise. (#3261, 12/23/2007)
