dprior (118), Somerville, Massachusetts, USA Jan 19, 2004 Medium brown appearance with a decent side head that disapates too quickly. Good amount of malt flavor, easy drinking. Enjoyable, but not something I'll find myself craving.
jmm635 (77), Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 5, 2008 Pours a nice clear black color with a tan head. Malty aroma, slight hops. Flavor starts out like a lager - hoppy and medium bodied - but finishes very much like a smokey stout. Very interesting transition. chandler0201 (111), Durham, North Carolina, USA Oct 2, 2008 Pours a full black with minimal white head. Hint of coffee in aroma and flavors, with a slightly smoky finish. fidelis83 (47), Clinton, Iowa, USA Sep 30, 2008 Pours used motor oil brown with a thin light tan head that lasts and leaves some lacing. Aroma is fruity, with roast malts and some floral hops. Flavor is coffee malts with a little bitter hops and roast malt to finish. Mouthfeel is a little on the slick side.
gotohelunc (385), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Sep 28, 2008 Bottle. Black, but thin enough to let some light through. Minimal head, white. Nice nose of dark malts. Mostly malt-forward flavor with some sourness in the back (probably from the blend with a lager) and a sticky finish. Not great, but nothing bad here either. kevin62 (251), New Jersey, USA Sep 22, 2008 Had this from a 12oz bottle.Poured a black color with a nice tan head.The aromas were of malt and light coffee,which were also present in the flavors as well as some light vanilla hints.Got a little smoke in the finish.Not too bad overall.
