bhensonb (3006), Woodland, California, USA May 18, 2008 Draft at WCBF 2008. Nice dark toasted malt aroma. Black color with minimal head. Flavor is lightly fruity with very smooth toasted malt. Finish is fairly dry. Just a a touch of bitter to solidify the experience. pinnocchio (1), USA does not count May 20, 2007 Love this one. Have been disappointed with many other stout microbrews. Hope to see it in more places in Portland metro area Angeloregon (2000), Portland, Oregon, USA Mar 26, 2007 For those reclusive wintery daze, this thick, malty, and delicious concotion is one of a kind. With a small gray-bronze head and a deep black-brown body this beer is well balanced and takes on a roasted fruit complexity after several sips. Stout lovers should make sure to get a taster of this beautiful bear of a beer Dubbercody (171), Vancouver, Washington, USA Mar 4, 2007 On tap at Holiday Ale Festival 2006
Black beer with small but fluffy light tan head. Chocolate, roast and traditional slight stout sweetness drive up to fill your nose. The taste follows in line with the nose. A great stout taste with the fine flavors of chocolate, coffee and roast.
Really excellent beer that I think is libel to get lost amongst all the HUGE beers at this years festival. Very impressive beer that I will be seeking out in the Portland Area. DA (2468), Portland, Oregon City, Oregon, USA Dec 4, 2006 On tap at the 2006 Holiday Ale Festival. Pours black with a tan head. Very sweet stout that had quite a bit of diacytle in it. Very milky chocolate flavor that had the butterscotch flavor from the diacytle, but since it wasn’t a sweet stout this didn’t taste all that bad. Very smooth and creamy on the palate with a light milk chocolate finish.
