Bottle from KyotoLefty. Thank you. Very sweet and malty with Belgian yeast nose. Dark, slightly translucent brown. Taste is very sweet, perhaps a bit cloying; like a freshly unwrapped Tootsie-Roll. More like a Belgian double than a stout.

Bottle. Nose of chocolate, fruit, Belgian yeast character, a touch of oxidation. Very sweet and fruity, berries, chocolate, wood in the finish. Nice but a bit too sweet. I would have guessed it was a Belgian Dubbel if it was blind.

Black with a creamy tan head. Aroma of chocolate, and sweet and toasted malts. Taste is a bit nutty, light cocoa bitterness. Nice texture, overall a solid beer.

UPDATED: SEP 24, 2011 Bought in Eugene and opened the 12 oz in san diego into Pint glass. Looks pure black. Light brown thinish head. Smells like super chocolate. tastes like a bunch of chocolate with a bit of bittersweetness kinda like dark chocolate. pretty thick on the palate also kinda crisp on the tongue. Overall 8.5 of 10. Very tasty beer!

Bottle @ bros house. Brown/black appearance with a tan head. Roasty, anise, dark chocolate malty nose. Quite strong, roasty, charred, black licorice, chocolate malty flavor. Too much char and licorice for me.
2.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Kind of nauseating to be quite honest. I don’t know why, but I am not enjoying this beer at all. Sad day apparently.
4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Strong, smoky aroma has tones of chocolate and molasses with coffee, nutty and licorice hints. It pours a dark chocolate brown with a fairly thick and fine-bubbled light tan head. Semi-sweet chocolate dominates the smoky flavor, which includes molasses, caramel and nutty hints. Texture is quite smooth and pleasing, not very fizzy but still good. Look for this one!
