From the Bottle at the GABF Colorado Convention Center, Denver 10/10/2008 Burnt roast aroma. Black smooth on the palate and strong in alcohol with a crisp and dry coffee roast finish.

Courtesy of After4ever, thanks Tom! It’s blac with a light-brown, creamy head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, flower/fruit, licorice and I sense the softness from the oat. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, coffee, licorice, soft oat, and very light fruit and even lighter hints of smoke. The finish in this pleasant stout is slightly dry.

Black with a small light brown head. Aroma of fruit, chocolate and licorice with a little toffee. Sweet fruity and roasted flavour with a little coffee

12oz bottle. Poured a dark black color with a huge sized tan head. Aromas of roast, light chocolate, and coffee. Tastes were roasty, chocolate, coffee, and some oats. Body way to fizzy and over carbonated (as the huge head would have suggested).

Pours an opaque black with a well-lacing beige head. Has a rich roasty dark chocolate and coffee nose with some piny hops. Starts with good fullness and a light milk chocolatey sweetness with good bitter balance before a drier roasty lingering finish. Has good lactose sweetness and flavor throughout. A nice oatmeal stout.
