| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | May 20, 2007 Rated 5/6/07: What an enjoyable stout, I wasn’t expecting it to be this good. Poured a thick black with a decent head and ample amounts of thick sticky lacing. The aroma was bitter and filled with nice roasted malts. Thick mouthfeel that is full and satisfying. The flavor is chock full of dark roasted malts and a strong bitter quality, slightly nutty with decent traces of coffee and chocolate. A wonderful find for an unseasonably chilly spring night. polomagnifico (533), Saginaw, Michigan, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 10, 2007 Updated: Oct 15, 2007330ml bottle. Aroma is mod/heavy burnt molasses and coffee. Large rocky, creamy, mostly lasting light brown head. Black except for dark red/amber just at the edges. Moderately bitter and salty with an average finish. Palate is light to medium body with a soft carbonation. A very good stout that surprised me since I can’t stand American draught Guinness. After a week in Curacao drinking polar and amstel this was an awesome find on the last day. Why can’t I just find this stuff in the states!! garthicus (1273), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

***RE-RATE***
Malt and coffee nose, initial sour bite which soon melts into a coffee finish, small but stable head, very enjoyable SETANTA (581), Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 16, 2007 Bottle, at csbosox KC tasting 4/14. Bottle provided by csbosox, thanks Chris! I had wanted to try this one for awhile, and I pretty much begged Chris to pull it out of his cellar. I owe you for this one! Pour is black, with very thin tan head. Aroma is boozy, with some roast coming through. Taste is sour, with a bunch of carbonation, which surprised me after the pour. Throughout the taste, this one is hot alcohol. The finish has some tangy sweetness. A very unique brew, this one had a flavor profile I hadn’t seen before. PilsnerPeter (2612), Flushing, New York, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Apr 3, 2007 Bottle: Extremely dark brown pour with a thick and creamy light brown head. The lacing is solid and thick. Aroma is decent with lots of chocolate syrup and licorice. The body is fairly creamy. Has subtle dark chocolate flavors upfront. Middle develops lots of licorice and salty flavors. Some metallic flavors are evident as well, leading to a roasty, bitter and salty finish. Overall it’s extremely salty, and not too quaffable. smhncabot (310), Cabot, Arkansas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 30, 2007 pours the typical black with khaki head. aroma roast, expresso, black currant, and a hint cocoa. taste is much the same with a hint of the guiness tang and bit spice to the finish. this is better and more bold than the extra available in the states.
