Sep 14, 2009 Dark, black, chocolate, candied fruit. Not as thick or chewy as I would have hoped, but an incredible flavor profile. Woody and rich. Really a tasty stout.

Sep 7, 2009 dark dark brown with a nice big pillowy brown head. aromas of coffe, chocolate, liquorice, bread, malt. very inviting so far. roasty flavors just on the verge of being too roasty and 1 dimensional, but this is almost perfect. creamy mouthfeel, good bitterness.

Aug 31, 2009 On draft at the brew pub. Not too impressed with this. Too watery for me, should have been a little creamier for the 6.4% alcohol content. Tasted weak and without a whole lot of flavor. Lightly sweet roasted malt taste. Watery, lightly dry finish. Too much like guinness.

Aug 17, 2009 Black with a brown head that displays great retention. Smooth, creamy, chocolately roasted malt and sweet fruitcake in the aroma. The flavor is of smooth roasted malt, light mineral water, and lightly sweet dark cake with a pleasant bitterness wrapping things up. Just a hint of sweetness, acidity, and burnt toast in the finish. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Good stuff, but has a few obtuse qualities.

Aug 13, 2009 12oz bottle from Lukas Liquors. Pours very dark brown with average tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate and some caramel. Flavor is dry and roasty with chocolate, caramel and a touch of coffee. Finishes dry but has good carbonation. This is a really solid stout.
