Jan 22, 2010 Like everybody else I was struck by the color when I poured it into the glass. Not your regular deep black stout. Kinda of "coca-colaish" appearance, with some transparence. Thin head, almost zero lacing. Smells sweet roasted malt, chocolate, coffee. Very light texture, tremendously drinkable (almost watery). The bitterness in the aftertaste is there, but is not a powerhouse like regular irish-style stout. A beer unlike anything I had ever tried. I liked it a lot. Refreshing and different! Not to be judged as a regular stout...

Jan 17, 2010 18th September 2008. Tasting at th brewery. A light stout with lots of sour malt. Tangy with some toasted malt coming through. Nutty semi dry finish. Quite porterish!

Jan 13, 2010 Pours near black with a thin off-white head. Notes of light toffee, chocolate and mild roast. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. I enjoyed this but it was a bit mild.

Dec 5, 2009 Draught at TJ’s: Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, and some cola. Very dark amber/brown in color with a tiny tan head around the edges only. Clear. Slightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet. Tastes of chocolate, roasted malts, and a hint of tobacco. Medium body. Thin, coating texture. Soft carbonation. Chocolate and roasted malt finish. Good for the style but pretty simple and thin.

Nov 25, 2009 I WOULD RATHER DRINK A BUD LIGHT than this drivel. this is supposed to be a stout? it’s the color of a pale ale with the flavor of a watered down pilsner. THIS SUCKS.

Nov 15, 2009 Bottle from Sainsbury’s. Bible black with tan head. Pleasant roast malt and caramel aroma. Taste is unsatisfying and dull. Some roast flavourings but not much else. Far to thin-bodied for my taste and a major disappointment from a decent brewer.
