So good. Deep dark yummy black stout. I loved it . Overall it was so good, weak legs, tight malt and small hops. Great stuff. love it

16 ounce sample on cask from the brewpub about a week ago. Aroma has a light cocoa powder character, without much else happening. There’s also a little metallic character. Not overly quaffable. Opaque black body with a creamy light brown head. Starts with some chocolate flavoring. Becomes a little roasted and toasted in the middle. Finishes a little metallic. Ethanol is well-hidden. Not a bad brew per se, but fairly forgettable.

Cask at the brewpub. Pours black with a foamy dark tan head. Aromas of chocolate, coffee and really dark malt. Med body. It has a smooth milk chocolate aspect - with slightly harsh burnt malt. The minimal coffee seems to carry a touch of cinnamon/spice. Nice. Easy drinking. Tasty.
