0.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20 Fyrdraca (16) - Greenville, South Carolina, USA - FEB 6, 2012
Horrific. There was no complexity to the taste or aroma. The only thing notable about this beer was the cloying, sucking, sickly sweetness. Gave me goosebumps and made me contemplate the futility of life. I’ve had hundreds of beers and I could count the ones I didn’t like on one hand. Dragon Stout is on the one hand.

Dark brown, tiny tan head, smells like sweet malts and coal. Taste sweet and a little burnt. ABV is pretty around 7%, yet it taste a little weaker that I had hoped.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Appreciator (15) - Winnipeg, Manitoba, CANADA - JAN 30, 2012
Classic stout being black with no light passing through. Aroma is inviting, low intensity, with a sweet toasted malt hint. No head at all, but quite carbonated. Low intensity other than being sweet. Medium bodied, with a short aftertaste. Thin, round texture. hint of bitter taste with a roasted malt, chocolate and a heavy sweetness masking the 7.5% ABV.
Appreciated

bottle very dark brown with tan head which dissipates .Malty aroma with a hint of Marmite . Quite watery - sweet almost cola esque with a carmel finish lightly carbonated . It has no complexity but ashamed to say I quite liked it - a guilty pleasure . Won’t buy another one though. Hides the 7.5% abv well
