thejon375 (390), Tampa, Florida, USA Mar 4, 2009 Wasnt impressed. I was expecting somethin that tastes like cappuccino, right? Unfortunately this one didnt. It tasted like really watered down Folgers. Agaguk (118), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Mar 1, 2009 600ml bottle shared with Pyrozoid and French Tickler. Black appearance with a nice creamy brown head. Aroma: chocolate, fudge, browny, burnt malts, alcohol and coffee. Flavor: alcohol, chocolate, coffee, burnt malts and light peppery taste. Palate: medium body, soft carbonation, creamy with an oily finish and an after taste of burnt malts. Pyrozoid (352), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Mar 1, 2009 Bouteille de 600 ml. Dégusté avec french tickler et Agaguk. Apparence de couleur noir avec un peu de rouge, mince collet très collant. Arome de bois, épices, café et chocolat. Saveur de chocolat, très crémeux, un peu le café et mince soupcon de vanille. french tickler (642), Aylmer, Quebec, Canada Mar 1, 2009 Rating # 600. Dégusté avec Agaguk et Pyrozoid. Apparence noir foncé avec reflet cuivré, bonne mousse brune qui colle un peu. Aromes de café, malt noire, chocolat noir. Grosse amertume en partant, sec et crémeux en bouche. Corps moyen +. Bonne stout qui deborde de gout de café et chocolat noir. nickd717 (1276), Palo Alto, California, USA Feb 28, 2009 Hell of a nice stout. 22oz bottle. Nearly black in color with a tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, and hops. Flavor is lots of coffee and roastiness with dark chocolate and a slightly bitter finish. Fairly full palate. A nice one. yngwie (4880), Kristiansand, Norway Feb 28, 2009 Bottle, 22cl. A dark brown beer, clear, beige head leaving some nice lacings. Fine hoppy nose with chocolate and coffee. Not a big nose, just plain pleasant. The flavor is more on the hoppy side than the aroma, still with chocolate and coffee, and with a fine bitterness. Full-bodied, with a roasted and bitter finish. A really pleasant and easy drinkable stout. Just delicious, not big in any aspect. (090116) cgarvieuk (4159), Edinburgh, Scotland Feb 27, 2009 Bottle at home ... thanks to another Forgoten trader (sorry) ... deep black ... soft but good roast with lots of soft coffee nose ... nice mellow roast coffee and loads of it ... some milk sugers ... good roast .... low hop just as i like it... Id say uncomplicated but wonderfully drinkable. crondonik (32), California, USA Feb 26, 2009 22oz Bottle. Have had two different years of this. The early ’09 poured a rich dark tan/black with a nose that had great dark malt that smelled of chocolate, burnt chocolate, slightly bitter but nice dark coffe and a good hop presence. The taste surprised me and was much more like bitter coffe than thought by the nose. It had a good balance but seemed to need some time to mellow out in my opinion.
