12oz bottle from total wine in greenville. pours a very dark brown with a thin, tan head and a solid ring of lace. aroma is mild but very nice with notes of dark chocolate, coffee, light roasted malts with a hint of smoke and the slightest note of dark fruit. flavor is very good as well with sweet dark chocolate, burnt coffee, peat, and roasted nuts with a solid, bitter, roasted coffee finish. palate is a bit thin for my liking and has a distracting metallic tinge but is smooth and drinkable. overall, a solid stout.

Bottle thanks to durhambeer!
Shimmering sepia with a decent beige head. Nose of chocolate and oat, minor roast. Robust flavor, lots of roast bitterness with some ashy toast, also some more chocolate. A little thin and short, rather creamy and coating. I rather like it, despite the simple and straightforward approach.

12oz bottle courtesy of onenote81. Pours a dark brown to black color with one finger tan head that settles slowly and laces the glass. Aroma is sweet and roasty with notes of chocolate, brown sugar, light roasted coffee, caramel, candy sugar, ripe dark fruit. Flavor is sweet and roasty with notes of chocolate, ripe dark fruit, brown sugar, cream, some notes of coffee grounds. Generally medium body with a pleasing roasted malt finish.

Bottle, thanks to WeeHeavySD’s girlfriend, Cyn, for sharing! Pours a deep dark brown with a tan ring. Aroma of chocolate, malt, coffee, sugar, and dried fruits. Taste is crisp, of burnt toasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, and berries. Lingering burnt and chocolate flavors. Nice.

Black pour with tan head. Aroma of chocolate and some coffee, flavor is very chocolate and coffee with some bitter notes. This would be good with ice cream.

Bottle pours pitch black with light tan head. Aroma is chocolate with some roasted malt. Lighter mouthfeel than I like for the style. Flavor is chocolate, roast, coffee, a touch of oxidation has begun to set in, and finishes chocolatey. Nice brew. I enjoyed it with my Tiramisu dessert.
