3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
I really didn’t do this beer justice. I didn’t have a glass and had to drink it from the bottle.
But overall was it good, had a nice malt finish and nice thick body.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
On tap. Pours black with a nice dark tan head. Aroma of chocolate, smoke and roasted malt. Nice smooth taste with a bitter chocolate sweetness coming out at the end as it warms.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
This was worth the wait. This was a great beer that I have heard about for a long time. Its a great brew, plus its from the other side of the world. Dark and delicious. Sweet tasting, a little bit of bitter and smoke. Tastes a little lighter than the 8 abv.
4.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
Thought this stout fell off the earth. Its easily found in Intl’ section of Okinawan Altec (liquorstore). The only problem is, they only I could never acquire more than three.
3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle - pitch black, a medium tan head. Nice pepper,chocolate aroma with a whisp of smoke in there too. The taste is that of malt-chocolate & smoke, definite sour and malt aftertaste with a long smokey finish, very enjoyable and only $1.80 a bottle!!!!!
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
330mL bottle from the LCBO. Pours black, with a thin, short-lived brown head. Aroma is of burnt malt and molasses, but there’s also a touch of an odd vegetal note. Thick mouthfeel, low carbonation. Flavour is sweeter than the average stout, not very bitter, with a touch of molasses. Not overly roasty, but certainly quite rich. Doesn’t show the alcohol, by any means. An interesting stout: won’t be my standard, but it’s a nice changeup.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: APR 5, 2008 What a nice suprise this one. Pours a very deep brown with no light getting through at all and a lasting tanned head. Aroma of intense roasted malt & coffee with a hint of chocolate & liquorice. A watery texture, I found this to be really smooth on the palate with each mouthful enjoyable as the last. A really good find.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Sri Lanka) Black color with a nice Med Brown Head. It has a enjoyable Roasted/Coffee Aroma, The Flavor kinda has a Molasses/Raisins sweetness!!! You don’t really taste the 8.0 % which is very nice. I was very pleased by this one, If you can find it give this one a try!!!
