SirSlarty (68), Reading, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 16, 2008 Huuuuge head. Wow is this frothy. Poured slowly from a bottle. Smells wonderfully malty. Deep brown. SLightly bitter in taste and an odd mouthfeel I can;t quite place. Decent!
j_b (727), Rochester, New York, USA Aug 6, 2008 Very nice dark appearance with a head that starts full and recedes to reveal nice lacing patterns. Rich mocha coffee aroma, toasted malt also. The palate is nutty and full, well balanced between sweet and bitter. Very nice. DarkBeer (47), Ohio, USA Aug 6, 2008 Dark, almost black. Tan head lasts a while. Serve at cellar temperature, Dark chocolate in the taste, feels great in the mouth. Some nuttiness. Aftertaste lingers a bit. Excellent beer. hopeye101 (11), Cedar Park, Texas, USA Aug 3, 2008 Poured from a 550ml bottle into a Youngs Beer glass.
