Jul 13, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Light aromas of milk chocolate and sweet malts over a retentive think black. Almost a little too smooth through the nitro as it makes this a bit thin with the creamy side. Mainly milk chocolate and weak bitter oat flavors. Weak bitter hops on the finish, and then it dies. Okay.

Dec 16, 2007 On tap at the brewpub on 10/14/07: Pours a mostly opaque black with dark brown edges and a stringy-lacing dark tan head. Semi-sweet dark chocolate nose has a lot of roasted maltiness and some doughiness. Body has pretty good malty sweetness and viscosity with some dark caramel and chocolate flavors along with a touch of dark fruits. A very nice sweet stout.

Nov 1, 2007 I guess I could have entered something special for 3000 but poor planning on my part. Tap @ CooperSmiths: Poured black with a long lasting creamy tan head. The aroma was roasty and ashey. Some chocolate but not too much. The flavor had a chocolate start with some roasted malt and dark fruits poking into the middle. Some tartness. Dry roasty bitter finish. Creamy light body. Nitro pour.
