Pours black with a tan head. The aroma is lightly roasted. A light coffiesh flavor is the only discernable flavor and is somewhat weak and watery at the finish.
3.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 ultraspank (867) - Alverca, Lisboa, PORTUGAL - APR 30, 2006
Bought a growler of this at Belmont Party Supply in Dayton. Shared it with some friends
at a cookout tonight. Wonderful nose of spice & toffee, molasses & coffee. Very rich,
and presents more hops notes as brew warms. Pours a dark hazy brown. The stiff frothy
beige head is mostly diminishing and leaves no lace. The flavor has a balanced front &
middle, though more malt than hops. Unfortunately the finish needs work. It is weak by
the tamest standards. The medium body is soft and dry. Not a serious contender in the
world of stouts.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 OhioDad (2493) - Hilliard, Ohio, USA - MAR 29, 2006
64oz Growler purchased from Belmont Party Supply in Dayton - Pours very dark brown almost black with a creamy tan head that stayed pretty well and laced the sides of the glass pretty well. Big aromas of coffee, and undertones of caramel and chocolate. Flavor is a smooth blend of coffee, milk chocolate, and caramel. Slight lingering coffee aftertaste that was pleasant to me. Medium bodied but a shade to the watery side. Amazingly drinkable though and a fantastic session stout. I’m looking forward to trying other brews by this brewer..

Had on tap at Macs in clifton. Poured a deep brown, nearly black color with a small brown head. Has a strong aroma of coffee and some chocolate. Strong flavor of coffee, with some chocolate and roasted malts. Rather thin for a stout. A great starting point for someone just getting into dark beer.
