thickfreakness (61), Austin, Texas, USA Aug 30, 2008 Pours pitch black with small brown head. Smell is charred malt, dark chocolate, espresso and ash. Flavor is much of the same with more coming from the espresso and chocolate. Still a little fizzy for the style but a nice full body. One of my favorite Texas beers but I preferred this one fresher.

Pours black with tan head. Aroma of dark roast and chocolate. Rich flavor of expresso and chocolate, sweet, very nice. Mouthfeel is full body, medium carbonation. Overall, great stout, loved it!!!!! jimbowood (720), Athens, Georgia, USA Aug 17, 2008 bottle from mar. Sweet. Reminiscent of memphistopoles, but less alcohol. Very nice. Maria (3975), Thisted, Denmark Aug 4, 2008 Courtesy of After4ever, thank you Tom! It’s pitch black and the head is nougat-colored, small, creamy, lasting and the mouthfeel is oily. The aroma has notes of dark fruits like figs and prunes, licorice, caramel and chocolate. The flavour has a light sweetness, a roasted bitterness and notes of roasted malt, chocolate, sweet licorice, dark fruits and it ends on a bitter and slightly dry note – it’s full-bodied and complex and nice! jkwalking05 (171), Arlington, Texas, USA Jul 26, 2008 Black with a thick black brown head. Really nice looking beer, first one I saw at the tasting, but I saved it to next to last and it was worth it. Flavor is huge with a rich dark chocolate taste and some coffee flavors at the end. Good smell and a thick body.
