Vinuous, lightly syrupy, with great roasted aroma. Low carbonation with strong roasted & black malt character. Crisp finish with warming alcohol. Very British tasting.

Pours Black w/ tiny brown head. Smells of cola and hint of chocolate. Refreshing but bitter aftertaste. Not very strong. Good to try but its different.

After a week of Red Stripe in the BVI, this tasted like nectar. Dark and creamy, hoppier than a regular stout and less astringent, sweet and smooth with a subtle bitterness.

dark brown/black with a brown head that disapears fast. a lot of alcohol in the aroma. a bit too much. sweet slightly roasty alcohol aroma. sweet chocolate fruity (banana) flavor. medium body. body seems a bit thin. fairly dry finish with quite a bit of alcohol.

Dark black/brown with a light brown head whitch fades rapidly. A very limited aroma with alcohol being forefront. There are faint notes of chocolate and roasted/burnt aromas. The flavor was mildy bitter with almost an acidic quality coming from the roasted malts. The alcohol was not very evident as might have been expected from the aroma. Nice medium body with a nice level of mild carbonation. The mouthfeel was the best part of the beer with an almost creamy consistency when the gas escaped in your mouth. The finish was unremarkable with average length and faint notes of the same chocolate and roasted characters found in the flavor. Very drinkable but unremarkable.
