BelgianGrailAe (1), Little Falls, New Jersey, USA does not count Aug 23, 2008 Surprisingly good for a canned beer. A good stout even though not my favorite type of beer. You can’t taste the ten percent alcohol. amc3000 (46), houston, Texas, USA Aug 23, 2008 can of black gold!
what can i say about this great stout. pours black with a leather brown head,picture perfect.
aroma is telling of what’s to come. Scent of smoke and cocoa Taste is heavy malt and sweet/bitter combo with a great roasted barley edge. hard to tell this is 9-10% radiomgb (1921), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Aug 23, 2008 Black in colour with a thin and quickly dissipating brown coloured head, very light patchy lacing. The aroma is very sweet, dark chocolate, liquorice, some espresso and alcohol. The flavour is of chocolate cake, cream, a bit syrupy, light alcohol and a small roast. Sweet mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes burnt with some chocolate and alcohol, lingering.
This is pretty straight forward. Thought that this was lacking considering how I’ve liked the other Oskar Blues beers that I have had.
355ml can obtained in a trade with Beerlando, thanks Bryan.

Kind of reminds me of coffee. craftycarl21 (510), South Hero, Vermont, USA Aug 20, 2008 pours a thick thick black with the darkest head i’ve ever seen- chocolate colored. aroma is nice, very very roasty. flavor is epic amounts of roasted malt, along with chocolate. excellent palate. phenomenal brew. NomDeBeer (398), Maryland, USA Aug 20, 2008 Pours black with a beautiful brown head that diminishes completely. Aroma of alcohol, chocolate, and dark fruit. Thick, heavy mouth feel that saturates the palate. Flavor of chocolate, bitter coffee, and vanilla. Alcohol is slightly noticable in the taste, but overall, it’s well-hidden. Long, bitter finish of roasted malts, coffee, and hops. thickfreakness (130), AUSTIN, Texas, USA Aug 18, 2008 Ordered from Liquor Max in Co. Thanks Nick. Tasted on 4/12/2008
I definitely wowed some friends pouring this amazing beer from a can. Pours motor oil black with a thick, mocha colored head. Smells of dark chocolate, coffee, and roasted malts. Taste is very similar with a majority coming from the chocolate and roasted malt taste and then a hint of coffee. The mouthfeel is very thick and expected of an RIS. The alcohol is hidden very well in the smell and taste for a 10%ABV beer thus it is pretty drinkable but I can’t see having more than a couple in a session.
