Feb 15, 2009 22 ounce bottle in pint glass. Black with lasting light brown head and lace. Roasted coffee and chocolate aroma. Roasted and a little burnt (which I like) coffee and chocolate with dark fruit and licorice. Medium bitter finish. Nicely made but a little fruity. Medium-full body and nice creamy texture.

Feb 14, 2009 Black with thick, long lasting beige head. Cocoa sweet aroma, slightly roasty with faint hop nose. Smooth and well balanced at first sip. Not too roasty or chocolatey. Mildly sweet that balances well with darker malts. After a few more sips, I notice a roasty/dry finish. Palate was average.

Feb 14, 2009 Pours a dark black with a frothy tan head. Nice lacing. Aroma is roasted malts, mocha and coffee. Medium bodied with a creamy texture. Flavor is very nice with hops bitterness and cocoa on the finish. Also notes of coffee, oats and burnt toast. A very tasty stout.

Feb 10, 2009 Almost black. Nice head. Good lace. Roast aroma with a hint of coffee. A little bitter tasting. Not bad at all. Finished somewhat dry. Clean and crisp. Doesn’t overpower you with alcohol taste. Also more carbonation than usual in a stout. Almost porter like. I’ll drink this again.

Feb 8, 2009 A very dark brown pour with a tannish head arising. Good roast malt and mocha aromas. Slightly creamy mouthfeel, fairly full bodied. Tastes the standard roasted malt, coffee and a healthy amount of chocolate. Maybe some oats in this one? Clean finishing, not too bitter or sweet. Not as outlandish and impressive as some others, but the slightly lower abv makes this much very drinkable. Enjoyed this one.

Feb 8, 2009 Deep brown pour with creamy tan head and lace. Aroma of deep dark malt and nice hops. Flavor mirrors aroma with a little spice kick at the end. Very nice finish. Medium bodied with good carbonation. A very good beer.

Jan 20, 2009 Dark black pour with a small medium brown head. Not much lacing on glass. Aroma is oats, chocolate, molasses, barley and a slight burntness. Taste is complex, and is very well rounded with coffee, malts, caramel, and a nice bitterness from the hops. A nice overall stout.
