Tasted 4/27/08. 6oz sample from the brewpub. Pitch and dark hue. Trace head. Muddy malts. Medium bodied with flavors of brownies and toast. Weak coffee. Toasty sharp and mildly bitter. Chocolate and anise. A little too tart, but decent.

Apr 28, 2008 Draft @ The Livery. Pours a slightly oily, dark chocolate brown color; dark brown head with excellent retention and fine-bubbled lacing. Lots of chocolate, nougat, and cocoa in the aroma; plenty of chocolate. Medium mouthfeel: excellent dry stout presence: loads of chocolate, milk chocolate, cocoa, and chewy tootsie rolls; excellent, dense chocolate character; very drinkable, with a touch of oiliness. Medium finish: cocoa, chocolate, and a touch of bread and toffee.

Oct 18, 2007 This is a pretty decent Dry Stout, even to one who’s not crazy about the style. It turns black in the glass and is capped by a creamy light brown head. The aroma is strong with roasted coffee, barley and malt, yet retains an underlying sweetness. Drinking is like supping a cold cup of coffee lightly spiked with alcohol. It finishes on a dry, mildly bitter note. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=5082> The Livery, Benton Harbor, MI<font size=-1>
