teebradford (45), Senatobia, Mississippi, USA Dec 24, 2005 The head is dirtier than Guiness’ head, but its still cool to look at. After a couple of gulps you lick yor lips and notice a sweetness. Weird. Kind of like a Guinness, but not as silky smooth. A good winter beer. I like it. There is definitely some chocolate in there.
EnSiFeRuM (262), Quebec, Canada Aug 28, 2008 La bière est de couleur noire avec des reflets brun et une belle mousse chocolat qui laisse ses traces au fil des gorgée sur la paroit du verre. Au nez on respire des arômes de chocolat noir, de café, de caramel brulé ainsi une pointe de vanille. En bouche le corps est moyen-rond avec une effervescence moyenne. On goute des saveurs de grains torréfiés, de café, de chocolat noir, de vanille et de caramel. La finale est seche. Beershine (1214), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Aug 20, 2008 Opaque dark brown with red tint, thin tan head, and some lacing. Chicory, mild coffee, and malted milk aromas. Soft and creamy, gentle mouthfeel. Mild, balanced, malty, creamy, with light mocha. Simple, on thin and watery side. dwaggs2 (64), Warrensburg, Missouri, USA Aug 19, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark black with a tan head. Smells like chocolate and roasted caramel. The taste is somewhat sweeter but not to bad. Taste is somewhat like coffee. Very decent beer EnnuiDivine (10), New Jersey, USA Aug 18, 2008 In the running for my all-time favorite brew. Like all stouts, meant for slow consumption and savoring rather than binge drinking. One of the sweetest beers I’ve had, and heavy without being overpowering. Necron99 (16), Clermont, Florida, USA Aug 18, 2008 Bottle. Dark brown pour with tan head. Smelled like roasted malt and barley, was very nice. Taste was slighty sweet at the start and moved toward slightly bitter at the end, I thought it was balanced nicely. Leaves a nice roasted type taste in your mouth long after finishing it and goes down smooth. This was my first Samual Adams beer, and I was pleasantly surprised. A very drinkable beer.
