UPDATED: SEP 27, 2006 Bottle (12oz). Shared with blankboy and mds, blankboy’s bottle. Bit of a gusher, deep opaque black-brown, average creamy brown head. Minty/grassy/herbal hop aroma, deep roast coffee malt. Taste - similar, roasty, somewhat sweet. Solid body, bitter long finish, acidic - solid!

Pours a near-black with a thick brown head. Good lacing. Very roasty aroma and flavour, charred and a little earthy. Bitter chocolate and a hint of fruit (yeast?). Smooth and full-bodied, with medium sweetness. Finish is quite dry. This plays more like a foreign stout in my mind, but who cares... it’s awesome!

A pitch black pour with creamy tan head and lace. Large roasted malt aroma with light chocolate and coffee. An almost licorish hint with a medium malt bitter and a bit of nice warmth. Medium/full bodied with very nice carbonation.

Bomber from acertain as a bonus in a trade we did last fall. Thanks again! The pour was super dark brown and nearly viscous. A small dark tan, light brown head popped up briefly. A very nice looking beer. The aroma was roast malt, coffee and thin chocolate. Faint hops noticed as the beer opened up. The flavor was a nice blend of smoke, roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. Better than average mouthfeel. A very well built, very nice stout.
