Had on draft at the brewpub. Definitely a dry, medium bodied stout, with notes of coffee and chocolate present. Overall, not too bad.

On draft at Olde Peninsula brewpub. A dry and moderately bitter stout with a good amount of chocolate and roasted malts. Medium body with soft carbonation. Somewhat average, but enjoyable.

Draft at the brewpub. Pours a black with medium tan head. Some lacing. Coffee aroma. Flavor of dark chocolate and roasted coffee. Lots of roasted maltiness. Nice bitterness. Dry finish. Like some of the other OP brews this one has gotten better over the years. Would recommend

On tap at the brewpub. Pours black with a thick tan head. Aroma of roasted malt and sweet malt. Flavor of sweet malt with some roasty notes. This is a rather plain stout flavor-wise, although it is easy drinking. Overall a decent stout if you’re not looking for something super special. 7/4/7/4/14 [3.6/5]

Tap at brewpub. Pours a dark brown with a small head. light roasted malts. dust cocoa. Not terribly exciting, but could be worse. would stick with the forest street ipa over this.

MiBG Summer Fest 2009, Saturday session: Opaque with a good creamy beige head. The aroma has notes of walnut, chocolate, roast, grassy hops, plum and mineral esters. The taste has dry stout flavors, roasty and ashy with a slight fruity and coffee notes. The mouth feel is soft and dry, thin-bodied. Okay but lacks depth.

From the Jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 13/10/2007 Roast aroma. Small tan head. Black and slightly rich on the palate with a crisp and bitter coffee roast finish.

Pours black. Roasty and mocha in the nose. Good balance of chocolate, coffee and maltiness. Clean finish from what must be a nice amount of hops. Almost a sweet stout IMO. Not that their other brews are not good, but this is far and away the best. Enjoy playing darts or the golden tee and having a few of these. A bigger beer that it might seem, after three or four the 6% abv starts kicking in. Usually knock down to the brown or pumpkin or red after a couple.
