May 14, 2008 Brown with a thin beige head. Aroma of coffee, roasted malts. Taste roasted malts, coffee with some mild sweetness on the back end that finishes a little nutty. Thin and watery with a weak coffee flavor. After having snake chaser, I was excited for this, kind of a letdown. Not enough coffee in there.

Pours black with a dark-brown foam.
Offers a light smell of coffee and roasted malts. I found it to be lacking this full coffee smell and flavour. Remidned me too much of the watered down coffee you get at yr local gas station. The beer remains very drinkable and enjoyable, but I was disappointed by the lack of punch it offered for a coffee stout.
Not a bad attempt, but nothing that could compare to other offerings. Terrapin, Dieu du Ciel, Bell’s and Founders come to mind.

May 11, 2008 Poured a deep, thick black colour with plenty of carbonation. Head was huge and brownish. Aromas were strong of coffee (der), toffee, almonds and roasted malts. A little bit of chocolate on the nose, but taste was rich and creamy with plenty of strong black coffee flavor.

May 8, 2008 12 oz bottle pours black with a thin beige head that quickly dissapates. Aroma of coffee and roasted malts. Coffee, roasted malt, and a little bitterness.

May 8, 2008 I found this to be unpleasant and barely drinkable. It’s black with a huge light brown head that slowly shrinks to a thin ring. The aroma is wine, prunes, steak sauce, and a hint of onion. The taste is sweet, winey steak sauce and prunes, with vinegar. It is tart, a little sour. In the end there is some dark toast quality. It is oily in feel but thin and watery in body, which may seem odd.
