COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Black and incredibly creamy with flavors of coffee and dark chocolate. A large portion of highly roasted black unmalted barley gives this beer it's opaque black color and deep flavors. Additionally a large percentage of unmalted flaked barley in the malt beer gives this beer it's unmatched creaminess. We add just enough hops for a little complexity. The result is a true stout to satisfy any connoisseur of the style, yet so drinkable that it pleases even lighter beer drinkers

This was quite tasty and satisfying. Great creamy coffee aroma, perfectly flavor roastiness, chocolate and raspberry covered halzelnuts. Not overlwhelming on the palate, nicely balanced and creamy and just enough flavor to be somwhere in the middle. A good sweet session stout.

skoisirius (1029) - Seattle, Washington, USA - MAR 18, 2006
12 oz. bottle. Pouring a beautiful and dark blackish and brown color, the smell wafting from this brew is heavy on the coffee and malts. At first taste is mild coffee, malt, and unsweetend chocolate flavor that kicks into more of the coffee towards the finish. Not as heavy of a flavor as I would have imagined from the aroma. Overall a good creamy stout in the end!

5000 (3998) - Hardened Liver, Washington, USA - NOV 24, 2005
Bottle: Very dark brown, nearly black, minor light brown fizzy head, spotty lacing.   Cocoa nose, minor charred wood, coffee bean, and very light alcohol on the nose.   Cocoa/Chocolatey start, roasted malt, but somewhat thin and watery tho.   Body and mouthfeel are moderate, but nearing the thin side.   Smooth finish, very low hop profile, roasted malt finish, with diminished cocoa/chocolate presense.   Good, but needs to be a bit fuller in body and moufhfeel.
