| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 23, 2005 What a beautiful beer. Jet black with a dark tan head: a fine-looking stout. Drank warmer than desired, but dertainly not disappointing. Heavy, yet smooth. This breweries best beer that I’ve had so far. kjharley (8), anchorage, Alaska, USA does not count | 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Aug 11, 2005 Dark smooth beer, a little light in the aroma department but very easy to drink for a stout. One of my favorites to have on hand. Braudog (3757), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Jul 17, 2005 Draft sample at the brewery 7/8/05: Interestingly brown head on this one. Little aroma, but a great little bitter edge ... grassy, almost grapey. Nice. ChainGangGuy (2557), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA

Smell: Dark malts with notes of creamy milk, chocolate, roast, dark caramel sauce.

Drinkability: A pleasant, well-made stout. I dug it! AmazonMatt (285), Panama
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 20, 2007 Long lasting cake batter colored head, and nicely opaque with a lighter edge. Very little aroma, probably the biggest fault. Nose was of coffee and a bit of caramel. It was very sweet with flavors of coffee liquor. I liked the mouthfeel...was milky. Smooth, sweet, quiet finish. kramer (2465), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 16, 2006 22 oz bottle, via BA timmec64. Pours a clear black with mahogany edges under a two finger foamy light brown head that left nice lacing. Aroma is slightly sweet with light roasted and burnt malts. Notes of lactose, chocolate, and light coffee. Flavor is lactose sweetness and roasted malt up front fading to a burnt malt finish with some bitterness from the burnt malt. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with an oily texture and active fizzy carbonation. A very good Stout. Lots of lactose flavor and not thin in any aspect. Worth seeking out.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 25, 2008 Bottle thanks to timmcd64: Pours a mostly opaque with dark mahogany edges. Aroma of toasted dark caramel malts with some bready doughy character and milk chocolate. Body starts with a decent dark caramel malty sweetness and a good balance of roasty chocolate and raisins with a touch of bready yeast. Finishes drier, toasty and bittersweet. A nice stout. goldtwins (4079), Nesconset, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 29, 2009 Big thanks to BrianK. Poured black with a tan head. Roasty malt aroma with sweet chocolate milk. The flavor also had a nice roast to it with some chocolate mixed in. No ash which I am happy to report. Lively CO2. Light to medium body.
