| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 31, 2008 Rich? Yes. Creamy? Yep. Black? Yup. Scary? Yeh. BUT! It really does hide the alcohol well. Smooth drinking with this one. I only really get the alcohol in the after taste. thedm (3834), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 28, 2008 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized brown colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a opaque no visible carbonation dark brown colored body and a fair lacing. The mild aroma was roasted malt and dark malt. The smooth mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish with a mellow hoppy aftertaste. The mild flavor contained notes of roasted malt. A decent one that I would consider buying again. gunhaver (1025), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 28, 2008 Updated: Jun 4, 2008Bottle. Pours black as night with a thin, quickly dissolving tan head. Some lacing, but it’s gone in a heartbeat. Smells of muted caramel and chocolate, milk, eggs, and oranges. Flavor is rich chocolate, roasted coffee, watermelon, raisins, strawberries, nuts. Squishy and nougaty in the mouth, with a watery finish. So far the three Mad River beers I’ve had have been very drinkable. tronraner (1911), Seymour, Tennessee, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 26, 2008 Bottle. Pours dark black with nice tan head. The aroma is rich, sweet chocolate with a bit of a coffee note, toffee, and some granola bars. The flavor is chocolatey at first, then gets a roasty bitterness. There’s a hint of cherry there for a second, then a prickly acidity takes over. The finish is clean and slightly sweet. Not bad at all. radagast83 (1289), Fairfax, Virginia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 26, 2008 No need for the extra moniker, but good. Pours a pitch black color with a small brownish head. The aroma is sweet coffee, chocolates, and roasted malts. The flavor is coffee, chocolate, and malts. A great standard stout that I could return to frequently. Ungstrup (15099), Frederiksberg, Denmark
