bag (84), Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 5, 2008 From bottle... poured watery black with medium head that stuck around just long enough. Aroma weak with a bit of chocolate. Nice roasty flavor. Slightly bitter and dry finish. Pretty dang good.
astrofrk (40), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Aug 30, 2008 Black. Medium head. Aroma: Chocolate, roasted malt. Flavor: Chocolate, roasted coffee malt. Bitter, coffee finish. CaryTheDude (174), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Aug 29, 2008 Not stouty enough to be a stout. Advert says a awesome head, when mine dissipated faster than the Cubs in the playoffs. Malty definitely, but another one of those beers where the finish is dead. And watery as hell. buzzoven (116), Japan Aug 25, 2008 Black in colour, receding head. Faint smell, typical stout flavours without pushing the envelope; chocolate, malt, roasted barley. Finish was weak and copper-like. Overall, I couldn’t really get into this one. Slipstream (350), USA Aug 25, 2008 This has another nice Mendocino noble bird label. The aroma is floral hops, coffee, and dark bread. Black pour with a light head and no lace. The taste is first rate - dry, bready, and complex. Coffee and hops come thru in the finish. It is fairly light-bodied for a stout, but still flavorful. This is another good brew from Mendocino,. BrewDad (1645), Olympia, Washington, USA Aug 22, 2008 12oz Bottle - Gravity Beer Market - Olympia, WA
Aroma – Deep rich dark malts with hints coffee.
Appearance – Black in color, thin head and clear.
Flavor – Nice malt flavor the dark roasty malts give of a chocolate and coffee flavor.
Palate – Good Mouthfeel, Stout like texture with a dry finish.
Overall – This was a very good stout with great dark malt flavors. Has a great taste and is a keeper.
