| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 13, 2007 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours completely black and opaque with a dense, creamy, light brown head leaving laces. Very burned aroma. Medium body with a very smooth mouthfeel, distinct flavours of burned malt and a high degree of sweetness - this really comes close to a Sweet Stout. Burned, bitter finish. 290307 NachlamSie (1637), Tennessee, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Apr 3, 2007 bottle split with Muenster. The pour is pretty black here with a lasting dark tan head. The aroma is spiritous with just a touch of hops. Notes of coffee, bourbon, and even some fruits, maybe apples, are present. The mouthfeel is just slightly viscous. Flavors of espresso are apparent along with that harsh, ashy, burnt oat taste I’m so fond of in stouts. It’s not a very sweet beer, but there is a substantial amount of fruity character like banana or apple. Finish is a bit ashy. Well done. muenster (339), Sevierville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 3, 2007 Bottle split with NachlamSie. Pours black, with a nice tan head, and some mysterious sediment at the bottom. Aroma is strong roast, with coffee beans, dark, musty fruit, and some mild hops. Flavor is nice roasty malt goodness with some bourbon and strong oaky notes. Nice stout. sloth (1662), Ceciltucky, Co., Maryland, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 1, 2007 Medium statured tan head, good retention and a lovely stringy, coating lace that hangs. Black, opaque brew. Nose is grainy, roasty and fruity with light coffee notes too boot not to mention some tarry notes. Body is med/full, oily with a tangy touch. Nice roast flavors, coffee, citrus notes creeping threw, a hint of black patent and dark fruits. Finish is fairly dry and roasty. Another enjoyable Stout! Props to kenb for this one in a trade awhile ago. Treephiend (57), Walla Walla, Washington, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 28, 2007 Pours black with tan head. Aroma is toasty and light. The flavor is what you expect from a stout. Chocolate coffee and roasted malts. Nothing stand out but very solid. Plus the flavor isn’t as strong as many stouts and I actually like that. It lets you appreciate the subtilties a bit more I think. AllAboutStout (605), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 28, 2007 Served in my delirium tremens tulip.
Pours a very dark brown with a nice quarter inch head. Nice lacing and froth remains.
Smell is roasted malts and cocoa bean. Taste is of bittering coffee bean. The mouthfeel is carbonated and medium in feel. A decent stout from an above average brewery. A good session beer that I would like to have on hand at all times.

Aroma is dark roasted and burnt coffee. Thick and full mouthfeel that’s smooth and satsfying. Dark caramel and molasses sweetness is balanced by a nice peppery bitterness.
