Cask. Pours black with a tan head. Soft roasted malt aroma with just a touch of coffee. Full, smooth body. Roasted malt flavor with coffee, caramel, brown sugar, and just a general sweetness. Nice.

Cask on tap at the Empire State Brew Fest in Syracuse. Malty roasted aroma with some coffee. Not overpowering in the roasted malt which was nice. Good buy wouldn’t buy again.

draft. black with little to no head. bold roasted flavors, medium body. dry, burnt grains, coffee like flavors, with a moderately sweet backbone (molasses). a nice stout. somewhat one dimensional, but the flavor and palate were solid.

Pleasantly surprised to find this on tap at Rohrbach’s today. Very dark color, decent head, aroma is typical roasted + chocolate. The palate makes this one for me, very sweet, oily, burnt, sticky, with caramel, coffee, chocolate and an oily finish too. Well done.

bottle sampled. Pours deep black in color with a tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, and a hint of chocolate. Flavor of coffee, molasses, hops, and some chocolate with a nice bitter finish.
