Mar 20, 2005 Pours an almost jet black, small brown head. Aroma is full of caramel, chocolate and coffee, a little lactose and vanilla. Flavor is light, roasted coffee, "metallic" twang, almost sour finish. Not really my style, or beer.

Mar 7, 2005 Thick pillowy head and opaque stout color. Unique peaty, smoky aroma hinting vaguely of reefer. Aroma is definitely the "high point" of the Snake Chaser, also containing some plum and root-beer-barrel elements. Flavor is stifled in the mouth by an unripe peach sourness leading to a pencil-lead-stout experience overall - the main downside to this beer. In any case there is little of the flavor complexity of a great European stout, and the body of this beer is quite watery and poorly carbonated. Finish isn’t bad, more like a smoked porter with unsweetened baker’s chocolate ... and a little of that reefer — of course we all KNOW that’s not real ૌછ ! In all fairness to the style I have this slated to try a warm bottle - which may alter this rating.

Mar 4, 2005 Nice head, settles thin. Opaque. Roasted, sour aroma. Maybe soy. Taste is very roasty, but has an underlying sour funk. Body was quite thin. Finish is strange, off.

Mar 1, 2005 Benevolent stouty pour with forgiving beige head. Mouthfeel was thin for the style but the flavor still managed to come throug--albeit in a session-y manner. Tasty snack for less than 6 for a 6-pack.

Feb 22, 2005 Beer pours black with a rather thin tan head. Aroma is of dark malt. Tastes like coffee, with a slight bitterness in the finish. The body is a little thin for the style. Overall, I found this beer pleasant and extremely drinkable.

Feb 7, 2005 Updated: Mar 24, 2005ReRate Notes: Much better on tap than out of the bottle...not quite as bold in the aroma and flavor.
Excellent beer by Lakefront. Pours a thick black color with creamy tan head. Aroma of bitter chocolate, coffee, molasses and smokey malt. Flavor is dominated by the roasted coffee and bitter chocolate with a nice hop bite in the finish. Thick and smooth body...makes me want another, good enough for breakfast.
