Pours a nice black color with a thick tan head. Nice coffee aroma with some roasted malts, hops and chocolate. Smooth taste - the chocolate and coffee make this a very drinkable beer that delivers some sweetness without overdoing it. Very nice beer.

Thanks Turdferguson. Nice pour with an almost black color and a tan head that lasts only a minute. Aroma is faint but offers chocolate and coffee. Taste is similar to the aroma. There is a good amount of roasted flavor and some dark fruit. Feel is moderate with some zest. This is a dry beer and is middle of the road for a stout.

Taste 12/8 Bottle. Looks: Black opaque body with a sticky head. Aroma: Roast and toasted malt, coffee and a little chocolate. Leather and smoke. A bit of cherry. Taste: Nice full bodied dry stout. Medium bodied, with smoke and chocolate roast. Very drinkable.

GABF 2008. Silver medal winner. Near-black pour, thin dense brown head. Generous espresso bean aroma, rich roast, faint smoke, medium bodied, earthy vegetal dry finish. Delicious!

Black pour with solid brown head. Aroma is weak dark roast. Flavor has only the slightest hint of coffee notes, which I like immensely. Also roasty chocolate malt. Pretty good, considering I don’t really like coffee at all.

Pitch black pour with minimal ruby hints at the edges. Slight creamy tan head hangs around nicely. Dark roasty aroma with hints of bitter roasted coffee grounds. Body is smooth like there is lactose in here. Smooth roasted malt then a finish of fresh coffee beans.

Pours a thick reddish blackish with at thick tan head. Chocolaty, creamy, roasted grain aroma. Thick smooth chocolate taste with hints of roasted grain and coffee. A very easy to drink stout and very tasty.
