troopie (402), USA May 5, 2008 Draught. Dark, deep brown with thin tan head. Powerful malt actually MALT aroma, Notes of chocolate, coffee and roast. Full mouthed lingering finish. miketd (319), Cleveland, Ohio, USA May 4, 2008 Pour is dark brown/black with a nice brown head. Aroma is very strong chocolate and roasty malt. Smooth chocolate flavor. Lightly bitter and a sweet finish. Great body and drinkability. fiver29 (180), Strongsville, Ohio, USA May 3, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Miketd. Pours a pitch black with a tan head. Has a nice smooth malt like aroma. Tastes creamy with a smooth body and some alcohol. Chocolate is very evident and has a nice dry aftertaste. Good brew. jayg (952), Florida, USA Apr 11, 2008 Courtesy mgumby10. Black pour, sparse thin white head. Chocolate, wet grain, mild hops on aroma. Palate a bit thin for style, but still amenable. Nice subdued roasty chocolate taste - slight hops and some alcohol heat on taste. Nice and even, roasty but alcohol is in check. Sammy (2776), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Apr 9, 2008 I like the FES style, thanks Derek. Smooth drinking. Dark brown with soapy head. Roast and malt nicely balanced, bitterness at the finish.
