masonjer (483), Holt, Michigan, USA Apr 9, 2007 Updated: Oct 15, 2007This came out of a handpull cask at Founders black party. I think it was made two years ago, and maybe cask conditioned for two years. Poured with a giant dark brown head. Smell was coffee chocolate, cream. Taste was incredibly smooth, huge chocolate and coffee, creamer, one of the creamiest stouts I have ever had. Judging by reviews from 2005, I think this stuff got way better with age. Absolutely amazing stout. mkobes (2045), paramus, New Jersey, USA Jul 26, 2006 Bottle. Deep black in color with a nice creamy thick tan head that really lasts. Chocolatety roasty coffee like aroma. Vanilla notes. Malty roasty flavor. Chocolate and caramel notes. Finish is bitter chocolate. Roasty finish. Sweet. Smooth and creamy. Rich. Ful bodied. Well balanced. Well done brew. JasonG (642), Cleveland, Ohio, USA Jun 2, 2006 Tap at brewery: Totally opaque black with creamy, thick, light brown head that lasts forever. Aroma is chocolately, with cherries, vanilla, faint roastyness. Flavor is malty, full of a wet chocolatelyness, mild vanilla, just a hint of dry bitter malts, with an almost imperceptible presence of roasted barley. Very silky mouthfeel, like drinking velvet, with a mild finish that leans slightly towards bitterness. Hides the alcohol well. AlabastorJones (634), San Francisco, California, USA Jan 1, 2006 black body with a head that looks like whipped-cream, so so creamy, with out a doubt the creamiest brew ever, tastes like a stout shake and the 9% is hidden extremely well, super sweet and chocolately with some bold roasts, this is the dank shit, damn that was good
