A tad too sweet, unexpectedly so in s stout, but delicious nonetheless. Absolutely beautiful color and a lovely pour.

Jet black pour with a nice deep brown head. Huge aroma, pleasantly chocolatey, freshly baked oatmeal cookies and a touch of licorice. The body is a bit thin, but the flavor is great. Light mouthfeel with very chocolatey malts (chocolate pudding). Has a later mocha coffeeish character and a slightly roasty finish. Low bitterness, smooth and highly drinkable.

UPDATED: NOV 10, 2006 Beautiful I love It. Dark chocolate and coffee malts. Sweet and bitter. Smooth and creamy full bodied on the palate. Just right.

Aromas of coffee with a hint of black olive. Flavors of coffee and cocoa with just a hint of vanilla. Pretty good.

Bottle. Pours very dark almost black with a milk chocolate brown head.Aromas of bitter sweet chocolate malt and toasted barly with a hint of coffee.Flavors of mocha coffee and sweet bitter chocolate and just enough alcohol to keep it from being to sweet.A smooth creamy beer that is very satisfying.
