pours a very dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is of course roasted malt with chocolate and lighter coffee tones. Flavour is a little drier than expected. Dusty chocolate tones and light coffee. Semi-sweet finish.

Blind tasting at Lunars Shoot stOut 2008, and later, 12 oz. bottle served. Clear, mahogany hue, with a very frothy, off white head, and clinging lace. Mild aroma notes of smoke, cocoa, roast, malt, and coffee. These follow into the flavor with some semi-sweetness and molasses. Medium body, and not much if any discernible hop bitterness, which would be favorable to me even with the oat presence. Enjoyable stout

bottle - Pours black with a thin tan head. It smells of roast chocolate malt. The flavor is sweet dark roast malt with some oatmeal characteristics as expected and some mild hops to give it some balance. It is medium bodied and overall a tasty, easily sessioned stout.

Bottle. Body is stouty dark and sports a smallish tan head. Not much happening in the nose at first, but it warms a bit and lovely chocolate, oat and coffee aromas spring forth. Flavor is pretty heavy on the oats up front and then at the very tail end of the aftertaste. They kind of stick with you after all of the chocolate and coffee dies down. This is pretty darn good stuff.

12oz bottle. Opaque black color with a fluffy white-tan head. Great chocolate aroma. Rich, chocolaty,and roasty, but still remains soft on the palate and quite drinkable. Good stuff.

Aroma of chocolate with a hint of coffee. Dark amber color with a nice brownish tan head. Dry malty, coffee taste with a slightly bitter finish.
