argo0 (6861), Washington DC, USA Feb 8, 2004 Cola colored with minimal off-white head. Aroma is light sweet, nutty, some roasty. Taste is light sweet, some cola, nutty. Medium body. Almost a porter in characteristics. TheBeerGod (3143), Newport News, Virginia, USA Feb 8, 2004 Thanks to jeffc666 for this one! Not sure why it took me so long to rate this since I've seen it a million times but just never bought it. Pours black with a small brown head. Nose is coffee, hops, and cocoa. The taste is more coffee and chocolate with some roasted malt and burnt wood. Finish has some bitterness and a slight oily feel to it. Very nice beer. A little thin on the palate but still good. F haddon90 (1035), Alexandria, Virginia, USA Jan 9, 2004 Deep black pour with not much of a head. Faint aroma of coffee and chocolate. Kind of watered down, which isn't too bad if you like fainter stouts. Roasted malt and chocolate. Pretty good, but I like thicker stouts. Not bad for Dominion though. mrkimchee (1414), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jan 7, 2004 almost black with red hints. mild aroma of coffee, nuts and a little chocolate. flavour has some nice roasty malt flavour but it all seems just a little thin. just okay redlem (1155), Illinois, USA Jan 6, 2004 Average stout.
