Apr 11, 2009 This is a great all rounder that is actually quite quaffable thanks to its low ABV. Nose shows attractive milk chocolate, together with a hint of a sweeter, more intense liquered note. Palate is mostly dry with lightly astringent roast and a layer of sweeter coco to finish. A comfort beer in many respects.

Mar 28, 2009 Bottle. Large light brown bubbly head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Fin aroma of roasted malt, coffee, light liquorish, grain and maybe a hint of smoke. Medium bodied with a to lively carbonation for a Stout. Moderated sweet flavor with light bitter notes. Light roasted malty finish.

Mar 8, 2009 From bottle. Deep amber colour with a decent off white creamy head. Fruity aroma with what I describe as camomile lotion. Smooth syrupy texture. Slightly smoked, roasted flavour. I’m still getting the camomile lotion. Rich fruity, berry porter. No overwhelming flavours but a decent quality stout.

Jan 26, 2009 Pours a dark black with a nice, thick, creamy head. Coffee flavors, with a hint of port. Just the right combination of sweetness and bitter. One of my favorite stouts.

Jan 23, 2009 Bottle: Poured a clear black color stout with a good size foamy head with good retention and good lacing. Aroma of dry roasted malt notes with some subtle notes of port. Taste is also an average mix between some dry roasted malt notes and some sweet port notes. Body is a bit too thin for the style in my opinion with some good carbonation. I guess this is OK but not something I would necessarily seek again.
