Dec 19, 2008 12oz bottle from Jans Wine and Boos #1. Pours a dark brown to black color with a one finger tan head that settles quickly and heavily laces the glass. Aroma is sweet and malty with notes of chocolate, heavy cream, some hints of chocolate, roasted malts, slight spice.

Dec 19, 2008 Bottle. Really nice appearance with a nice, dark tan head. Roasty aroma is sweet and inviting. Smooth tasting, semi sweet with plenty of roastiness and coffee flavors. Nice creamy body, sort of silky. Good brew.

Dec 12, 2008 Its the water again? Tasted a little off, but I can see where it would be good in a better year. Aroma of coffee and butter toffee, with subtle chocolate flavors and an overall light and refreshing feeling. A very thin bodied-stout. Garnet red in color.

Dec 11, 2008 Beer pours from the bottle a very dark black in color with a foamy white head. Aroma is light chocolate and coffee with not much else. Flavor is chocolate sweetness up front with a nice coffee grounds bitterness with lots of roastedness to finish the beer off. Overall pretty good if you roasted malt taste.

Dec 11, 2008 Updated: Feb 1, 2009smells like powered chocolate and dried fruit. very nice dark body with ruby highlights, head looks alright. initially tasted a little bland but after it warmed up it reminded me of a tamer mackeson XXX stout. i like the texture but its a ittle flatter than id like. great coffee flavor and bitterness. finishes quick and light. if it was just a tiny bit more flavorful id really be into this, but as it stands its just pretty good.
