Beerded_one (1551), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 24, 2008 Can. Pours jet black with a one finger tan head and has decent lacing. Aroma of roasted coffee, chocolate, dark malts and a hint of toffee. Full bodied with a nice thick and smooth mouthfeel. Flavor is dark chocolate, coffee, dark malts, and notes of molasses with a bitter and dry finish. Awesome stout in a can.
kegbear (58), Orange, California, USA Jul 26, 2008 Thanks to Glouglouburp for this bonus brew. Coffee, dark roasted malt and a bit of ash. Nice dry finish. Super thick tar black like the La Brea pits. No dead dinosaurs floating in the can however. Best beer I’ve had out of a can. Bigmmartin (137), Dayton, Ohio, USA Jul 25, 2008 Can thanks to dkachur! Very dark, black pour with a thick brown frothy head. Strong aroma of sweet roasted malt. Flavor is more sweet roasted malt and hops. Winds down to a bitter, very dry, finish. Has a nice thick, creamy, mouthfeel though. hophead_hans (555), Bay Area, California, USA Jul 19, 2008 Can, thanks Craig. Pours a solid black with a medium brown head. Aromas of chocolate and roasted malts, a bit of coffee. Very smooth on the palate with nice flavors of raosted malts, cacao, coffee and very little hops. Had a bit of a dry, ashen note to it as well. Quite good. nathan30533 (21), Dahlonega, Georgia, USA Jul 17, 2008 I would call this one a desert beer. Great tasting, you can most certainly taste the chocolate and cocoa. Overall smooth but a little bit of bubble in the mouth. Not an overwellming aroma but a good one. Looks great, taste great, overall great stout by the oskar blues guys. Taktik_MTL (1843), Montréal-Nord, Quebec, Canada Jul 17, 2008 Canette de 12 oz achetée chez Julio’s Liquors (Westborough, MA). Arôme: Odeur de chocolat au lait avec une pointe de café. Apparence: La couleur est noire opaque avec une très faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un mince col brun crémeux et d’une large dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût très chocolaté avec une pointe de café et de caramel. Longue durée de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est plein avec une texture crémeuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Légère présence de chocolat amer en arrière goût. (Rating #1826)
