Jul 26, 2006 Updated: Aug 25, 200612 oz bottle from Roths Grocery. Roasted coffee, toffee, licorice aroma. Very nice. Full roasty flavor, chocolatey but subdued chocolate. Great balance between malts and hops. Very nice lingering hoppy aftertaste. This is a great American Stout and a very good price!

Jul 24, 2006 Bottle. Pours black with tan head. The aroma is quite roasty with some caramel and even a hint of smoke. The flavor is also very roasty with an occasional hint of chocolate and a slightly smoky, ashy finish. Tasty.

Jul 18, 2006 Big hiss is well met with a frothy and deep tan head that’s 3/4" thick. Below it lies an opaque and midnight brown body. Aroma ejects singed marshmallows, ash, lactic dark chocolate, smoldered s’mores, soggy cocoa puffs and mocha cappuccinos. Deciduously dry and bitter flavor. Espresso grinds latch on and punch caffeinated holes in the mouth’s outer realm for the sake of aeration. Dark chocolate, cocoa beans and arid mocha torte line the tongue like the bottom realm of tiramisu, and then it’s tickled by a matchstick. Warming vibes and an acutely dry tongue sweep keep the well-rehearsed number at rising star status. Hard crushed mocha beans with a lick of burnt french torte crust come through in the finish. Thanks for the bottle, tpkenned!

Jul 14, 2006 Bottle at Old Chicago in Billings, MT. Black color with a huge frothy brown head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Heavy roasted coffee dark chocolate aroma. Full body with a creamy texture. Heavy roasted balanced bitter sweet flavor with a medium sweet roasted coffee of long duration. This is a standout beer.

Jul 7, 2006 Updated: Feb 22, 2008Re-sampling - Thin body but very rich, complex roasted malt body. Heavy on the bitter chocolate and roasted espresso bean. Finishes with a strong roasted coffee profile. A great everyday stout.

Jul 4, 2006 Bottle. After trying it agaian after a long time, I think it is much better than I remembered. Full flavored and medium to full bodied this is a great stout that does not make a meal in itself. It pours black with a nice head. Aromas are dominated by chocolate andf malts, more of that in the flavor department with hops added for balance.
