3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 AllAboutStout (605) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - OCT 3, 2008
Pours very dark brown in color. There’s a very nice frothy, espresso like head that forms on top. Plenty of carbonated bubbles racing towards the top of the glass.
Smell is lactic, heavily roasted malts and some cocoa. Taste is more of the roasted malts. There is a certain lactic, metallic flavor that is not jiving with me. Medium mouthfeel and bitter.

Pours just about black with a nice tan head that diminishes quickly. The nose is roasted malt, coffee, a bit of chocolate and hint of molasses. The flavor is equally enjoyable, with roasted malt and coffe standing out, with coffee and chocolate in the mid to finish. Clean and dry in the finish, with very little bitterness. Mouthfeel is smooth and a bit creamy.

Pours black, with a creamy, frothy light brown head. Smells of rich caramel and toffee cream, with some molasses and dark fruit pushing through. Some graham cracker in there as well. The flavor was also pretty sweet with lots of that toffee cream noticeable. I liked the sweet graham cracker flavors of this brew. Nice rich crisp palate, with solid carbonation. Alcohol wasnt intense, but added a nice bite to it. Very nice foreign stout.
