Tap at EBC Fredonia. Chocolate, oak barrel aroma. Black body with tan thin head. Chocolate malts balanced with vanilla, strong oak aged flavor...Alcohol is definitely noticeable

UPDATED: FEB 22, 2012 On tap at EBC. Poured a dark, opaque color with two fingers of tan head. Mild aroma of chocolate and vanilla. First sip, immediate taste of chocolate and a vanilla finish hits your mouth. As the beer warms up it becomes more and more rough on the finish. Pretty good stout, may be too rough for those whoa re not used to stouts.

Draft at Coles. Near black with a tan head. The aroma is almost creamy, with molasses, chocolate, and vanilla. The flavor has more molasses and cream, almost like a vanilla custard, as well as lighter notes of roasted/burnt malts. A tad dry in the finish. Not bad.

On tap at Coles, Buffalo, NY. Pours a dark black with big fluffy head. Big roasted malt aroma. Taste seemed like a bozzier milk stout. Roasted malts, light oak & vanilla. Medium to full body. Pretty good
