3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Black, super great beige foam. Sweet milky roasted malts and cheap Easter chocolate on the nose. Intense like a 4 shot iced coffee. Milky but with a super bitter hint. Smooth, clingy and downable, Very easy going.
4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
Bottled. Holy goodness, this is one rich and robust beer. Sweet aromas of dark chocolate and almonds fill the air as this pours a rich and deep brown with substantial creamy head. Very nicely carbonated to mix with the robust malt/chocalate/nutty flavors that draw down the gullet leaving a very nice afterbirth. This is one stout not to be missed!

4.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
What do I say? "That’s a Lion of a Stout!" One of the very better beers I have tried.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
330ml bottle. Pours black with a good sized tan head. Aromas of molasses, cocoa, lots of smoke (reminds me of barbeque sauce). Noticable alcohol. Sweet, again the barbeque sauce comparison comes into play, molasses, dates in the finish which has very faint bitterness. Not a huge fan of sweet stouts, but this one isn’t too bad. Would definitely be a great accompaniment to food.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
This is a nice big chewy brew! Jet black with a nice frothy tan head that goes to lace. Aromas and flavors of sweet smoke, malts, nuts. Alcohol is very well masked. A very drinkable brew.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Dark brown/black color; Medium slightly creamy body; Aroma of toasted malt, chocolate, & burnt coffee; Flavor of roasted malt, caramel, coffee, some dark fruit, and bittersweet chocolate; Nicely balanced & complex; Overall, very surprised by this one - quite good.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours pitch black with a long lasting generous tan head. The aroma starts sweet almost bubble gummy but roasty and chocolat notes take over. Flavor is mostly dry with a smoth finish. Some alcohol is detectable but not too overwhelming. Full Mouthfeel that is smooth and slick. Overall a nice well brewed beer although not my preffered style of stout.
