Serve in Snifter, Tulip

Coffee and Chocolat. Light body and crisp character. Very well made stout. Sweet but not overly sweet.

Dark black beer light brown head. Great malty complexity, raisin, dates, toast, molasses and rum overlie a sweet smooth dark chocolate flavour. Rich texture, sweet, but not cloying. Great roasty flavour with a bit of blackberry. Sweet roasty aroma, molasses and rum. Toasted wheat and chocolate. Light tar but its well balanced by sweet malt complexity. Nice brew.

Very dark brown with a brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate and some liquor. Flavor of dark chocolate malt and liquor.

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

Pour black with a khaki head.Aromas of smoke and coffee.Has tastes of chocolate and coffee and you did tatse the alcohol slightly.

12 oz bottle. Pours a clear black colored body under a fizzy two finger brown head that retained as a thin film. Aroma is roasty and fruity with a good dose of lactose. Some coffee, light coconut, alcohol, and burnt malt notes. Flavor is full of roasted and burnt malt with an intense fruitiness up front. Finishes with some lactose and burnt ashy notes and light alcohol. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and slightly oily in texture with light soft carbonation. Slightly sticky on the finish. Overall, a very good example of a tropical Stout. I don’t know what more you could want.

Bottle. A strong molasses and coffee malt aroma. Dark opaque brown color with small head. Wood smoke and burnt sugar flavor primarily but with nice coffee malt notes and mild hops finish. Beats the holy crap out of Red Stripe.

Don’t know if this is new to FL, but it is the first time I have seen it. <P> Smokey/roasty aroma with some sharp lager overtones. Deep black with a firm pinky thick mocha head. Creamy with chocolate and coffee notes. Again there is a lager like note to this..the finish has a lagerish taste to it.
