| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 20, 2009 Under the name of Midnight Sessions Lager
Pours near black with a small, but densely packed beige head. Lots of quality lace on the glass.
Aroma of dark roasted coffee and warm cream. Elements of toffee; slightly chalky.
Tastes like a stout--it is even full-bodied, despite being lagered (still lighter than most stouts). Lots of burnt toast/black patent flavors, particularly at the swallow. There’s enough hop to be present. Great chewy finish with lots of spiciness. An easy to drink "session" beer, even though this is no session beer!

The aroma is sweet malty combined with notes of roasted malt. The flavo ris sweet malty again with notes of roasted malt, which lends the beer a slight acidity, leading to a dry, bitter, and roasted finish. The body is a bit light.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 5, 2009 Pours a near black colour with ruby edges and a minimal beige head. The nose is or earthy hops, old coffee, mild cocoa, and some roasted malt and vegetal notes. The flavour is as the aroma suggests, with some medium roasted malts, old, burnt coffee, herbal hops, char, peat, and a vegetal sweetness. The finish is dry and roasty with old coffee notes lingering the longest. The palate is velvety smooth up front, but it finishes watery, while the aftertaste somehow lasts for a while. I would definitely buy this again during this season. emerica56 (587), Bristol, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 5, 2009 The color is a dark brown with no head at all. The nose is roasty and full of malt and nuts blended with hints of coffee and mocha. As you sip on it there is a robust bitter hop flavor initially mixed with some dark malt that sticks to the sides of your your mouth. It has a rather thin body but the presance of burnt or old coffee sticks to your mouth for a while. Overall it is a good brew with just the right amount of carbonation and well balanced flavor.

Pours dark brown with a tan head.
There is lots of chocolate in the aroma, summed up with liquorice and weak notes of roasted malt and coffee.
Flavour is coffee, liquorice, tan and slight notes of chocolate.
The heavy roasted coffee, liquorice aftertaste quickly disappears.
