dwyerpg (2519), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Jul 28, 2006 A little faint stoutish aroma. A nice beer, that seems to have a taste as cross between a stout and a porter. Some good chocolate in it as well. Nice. Odeed (1666), Bakersfield, California, USA Jul 21, 2006 black body with lots of red peeking through.brown head that leaves nice webbing.nice chocolate and a bit of alcohol heat in the aroma.flavor is chocolate,figs,and a tiny sour finish. peter (385), Dallas, Texas, USA Jul 13, 2006 Peat smokiness and small coco fill the nose. Flavours are smokey with some pepper. Mouth is watery. Better than the BA, but thats not saying much. chef201atc (249), Weatherford, Texas, USA Jul 3, 2006 Poured black with a tan head that quickly diminished to hint of covering. Spicy aroma with a thin lightly carbonated texture. Flavor, light the whiskey cask age version, was a disappointment. While there was a hint of chocolate, what came through most was and earthy combination of ash and dirt – like drinking soy sauce with a bitter finish. As bad as this was, it was slightly better than the whiskey cask age version. IrishBoy (2685), Bakersfield, California, USA Jul 1, 2006 Updated: Jul 2, 2006(Style 62/70) Bottle from Country Club Liquors, Bakersfield; Nose of chocolate, coffee, malts, and dark fruits; transparent dark brown, same shade but not opaque like old engine oil; flavor of smoky coffee, with a little sour finish. Lumpy (1802), Carrollton, Texas, USA Jul 1, 2006 Bottle. Nose-maple syrup, baker’s chocolate, hay, sawdust, coffee, slightly lactic. Dark chocolate colored with a few bubbles. Taste-cold coffee grounds, lactic, peaty smokiness, light chocolate, grassy. Not too bad. Better than the BA version.
