May 20, 2008 Not bad at all. Very much like a guiness extra stout. Would drink again but not one of my favorites.

May 16, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours black with a moderate, dense chocolate brown head that quickly disappeared and left a very thin film on the glass with each sip. Pleasant aroma of chocolate and roasted malt. The flavor is very similar to the aroma, but the aftertaste has a wet cardboard flavor that I am not fond of. Light to moderate bitterness at the finish. Probably not something I’d go back to.

May 14, 2008 Bottle: Poured a dark black brown with a tan thin head. The aroma is sweet and coffee bean. The taste is coffee with some bitter twang to it.

May 13, 2008 ~Pours a soda like colour with small brown head.
~ Aroma is strong in coffee and sweet roasted malts
~ Taste is choclatey and coffee bitter
~ Palate feels dry and light, but also coats mouth.
~ This is a delicious beer. Definetly have to try again with some vanilla ice cream.

May 8, 2008 Pours black with a large beige head. Sweet with some bitterness. Malty aromas of roasted coffee and roasted malts - also a hint og caramel. Light citric hops aromas. Also aromas of sweet dates. Medium bodied with a creamy mouthfeel. Medium carbonation. Dry finish. OK

May 6, 2008 Bottle. Pour is like cola... fizzy and dark. Head sits around three or four fingers at first and hisses at me while I type. Aromas are thick of roasty malt, dark chocolate and charcoal/peat. First sip reveals a fairly nice blend of coffee and chocolate malts with a bit of a smokey aftertaste... all the while, it is a bit thin on the palate, especially at first. It could be that there is not the push from a higher ABV to warm things along or the malt presence is a little thin, but it seems just a tick away from perfection. Very nice, in spite of it all.

May 6, 2008 I really enjoyed this stout. Not a big aroma but a beautiful black color with a large fluffy brown head after a hard pour. Nice malty sweetness with a smoke taste in the background. Ends with a bit of hops.

May 2, 2008 Bottle from Beer Club: Poured a deep dark brown, almost black with not much head. The aroma was roasted malts, some caramel. The flavor was rich and smooth, espresso and dark chocolate. Overall, a really good Stout.
