Bottle. Coffee and malt aroma, some sweetness, some chocolate. Black body, thin brown head. Tasty rich flavor of malt, coffee, moderate sweetness, and roastedness. A nice touch of bitterness in the finish. Very nice.

12oz bottle courtesy of BrewerB, thanks! nice dark black color which is to be expected with a coffee brown head. Smells roasty and tastes like a roasty stout although I don’t taste any mocha or chocolate. Far too easy to drink given the robust flavor and low alcohol, my pint glass was finished in about fifteen minutes. Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 01-26-2009 00:38:52

A nice dark pour good flavor, but don’t really know where the mocha was its a little disappointing in that since. Besides that it was a nice little stout.

12oz bottle. Pours a brown head with a dark brown body. Smells of roast, burnt sugar, and a hops. Sticky sweet with heavy toast, slight smoke, and pine bitterness. I enjoyed the hops in this quite a bit.

The aroma is sweet and heavily toasted with chocolate, coffee, molasses, and hops. The alcohol is very much present and more than I was expecting for a beer with only 5.3. The appearance is black with a tan head that develops quite nicely. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is average for the style. Overall a nice stout but not a great stout, I dont like the bitter, acidic finish.

[1777-20081014] 12floz bottle. Roasted malt and figgy fruit aroma with mild sweet floral perfume and wet wood hints. Dark brown black body with a medium-lasting foamy tan head. Slightly smoky dark roasted malt flavour has lots of roasty mocha. Full body. NIce mocha characteristics.

Soaked oak chip aged cask at Aroma’s. Pours darkw with small tan head. Aroma of oak, coffee, chocolate, malt, alcohol. Oak isn’t as boozey as expected. Taste is also very malty. Some vanilla, chocolate, bitter notes as well. Finish is lightly bitter. Overall, a nice cask for a solid brew.

12oz bottle thanks to TURDFERGUSON. Pours dark with a thin brown head which dissipated quickly. Nose is of coffee, roast malt and alcohol. Taste is harsh, bitter coffee. Mouthfeel is medium with a dry finish.
