4.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20 madsneergaard (10) - Gistrup, DENMARK - APR 20, 2013
Bottle. Dark as night in the glass with a mocha, light brown colored head.
Aroma: Coffee, roasted malts, very dark and milk chocolate. Maybe a small hint of dark fruits like dates??? As it warms up, you sort of get an alcohol touch to it - but it’s not overwhelming at all.
Nice creamy mouthfeel. It starts out in a sweet and milk chocolaty way, and then, very nicely moves into the darker and more bitter coffee, roasted malt texture. Really good! If this was a blind test, I’d might say this would be a sweet/milk stout - and that’s not a bad thing for me :) Again, time turns this into a sweeter stout than at first sip. Really good stuff!
This would be an even more awesome beer if it’s barrel aged. Please do that in the future! That would make this a perfect beer :)

Bottle. Pours black, thin head. Roasted malt nose. Flavor espresso, toffee and dark chocolate. Flavor lingers on the palate. ABV is undetectable. Lots of flavor but very unbalanced and too thin on the palate. Hopefully it will age well.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20 ICEatALAMO (533) - Troy, Michigan, USA - APR 6, 2013
Bottle. The pour is dark with a thin rim head. The aroma is a lot of toffee. The taste actually has a nicer blend of coffee, toffee, and some hints if chocolate. A very complex taste and really plays games on the palette.

Pours a deep brown almost black color. Aroma is of dark roasted hops. Taste is very chocolate, with an earthy flavor for a stout. Overall a rich stout that was bitter with a hop aftertaste. Not for the weak beer drinker as heart.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 5000 (4974) - Hardened Liver, Washington, USA - MAR 22, 2013
Bottle:   Black, moderate frothy beige head, spotty lacing.   Roasty nose, a touch of sweet soy, minor lactose and hops.   Soft graham cracker on the tongue, minor roast, little hop, decent maltiness, with a slightly charred wood background.   Pretty smooth and clean, not harsh at all.   Some chocolate notes on the backside, bakers chocolate like.   A little lactose.   Hides the 9.5% ABV well.   Body and mouthfeel are moderate to full.   More respectable than I thought it was going to be.
