Black, with brown head. Aroma was a little faint: coffee beans and chocolate. The flavour was well-roasted with a nice balanced hop profile, though maybe a little lacking here. Thick, full bodied. A good stout. Draught.

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Dark and opaque with a tan nitro head. Lightly roasted aroma is somewhat passified by the nitro tap. Body is sweet, but somewhat thin with a nice subtle dark fruit flavor. Very smooth roasty finish as well. A good, very drinkable stout.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
UPDATED: JUN 4, 2008 2008-05-30. Nice khaki head and lacing atop a black body. (4+) Roasty aroma with touches of coffee and hint of smoke. Very mild mocha. Flavour is much more bitter than I recall. Dry roast with unpleasant ashtray and bitter tobacco notes in the finish. Average palate is not the rich creamy weight I remembered. Odd. Hopefully this was a wonky sample and not a change in recipe. 7/5/6/3/12 - 3.3 Draft, Dieu Du Ciel, Montreal<P>
October 2003. Black with a tan head, roasty and very coffee like to my palate. Body was decent but could be fuller. 6/4/7/2/14 - 3.3

Espresso head with black body. Aroma is medium sweet chocolate, lighter coffee. Taste is sweet coffee. Think Breyers coffee ice cream, with a trifle more bitterness, and you've got it. Creamy, fairly full body.
