shendrix (477), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Jan 16, 2008 A good stout, pouring black with a slight caramel head, tasting of oats, barley, and a bit of roasted coffee, backstopped by semi-sweet chocolate and a bit of alcohol warmth. FlacoAlto (2251), Tucson, Arizona, USA Jul 8, 2005 This is a cask version of the Saguaro stout that has chocolate added to it. This beer has a wispy tan head that sits atop a beer that is black in color with ruby highlights. The aroma seems a bit more subtle than the Saguaro stout, but is basically the same with notes of coffee and chocolate. This beer is served much warmer, a bit less carbonated and has a finish that is dominated by the evident chocolate note. I actually like this better that the regular because the chocolate hides the slight grain husk harshness that is in the regular beer. turbo (1250), Arizona, USA Jul 1, 2005 Black with a big thick head.
Aroma is sweet roasty malt and chocolate.
Heavy chocolate and roast malt flavor.
Good medium body stout.
