Can. Deep ambery brown colour with a thich mediumsized beigeish brown head, that leaves nice lacing. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, some slight toffee, roasted malts and mild chocolate cookies as well. Flavour is mild roasted malts, some slight liquorice, ripe fruits and mild chocolate and bready malts as well.

Canned at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Black, rich beige head. Tarry licorice aroma. Mid sweet with dense solid body and rounded moiuthfeel. Tar and licorice dominates until resiny bitterness takes over. A heavily hopped, aggressive stout.

UPDATED: JUL 1, 2008 More or less black in colour. Well, a little less but not enough to quibble. Roasty, plummy, deeply chocolatey aroma. Chewy dark malts - roasty, chocolatey. Well-defined flavours with only a hint of fruitiness. A lot of hoppy dryness in the finish. Quality.

(growler, thanks CaptainCougar) Medium tan head atop dark brown body. Aroma is medium sweet, roast, some coffee, light chocolate, burnt. Taste is medium sweet, roast, coffee, light burnt. Smooth medium body.

Can from Half Time. Pours brown/black with a dark tan head. Aroma comes across as resin. And smooth burnt malt. Med body or nearly so. Flavor starts as hop, then more hop, then a slightly ashy smooth burnt malt. It is quite hoppy and bitter. Excellent ale.

Draft sample at IBGWF 12. Poured a black color with an average frothy light brown head that mostly lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy toasted chocolate malt and hop aroma. Medium to heavy chocolate sweet flavor with a medium to heavy bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. Medium to full body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. This is a very good beer that exceeded my expectations.

A murly dark brown stout with a thin light moka. In aroma, a nutty grassy malt with light fusel alcohol, roasted coffee beans, roasted coffee beans. OK. In mouth, a smooth nutty coffee malts, with some nice c-hops, pretty nice. Cask at Get Real NY, March 19 2011.

Draft courtesy of craftycarl21, thank you sir! Dark murky brown color, medium tan head, good lacing. Aroma of chocolate chip pancakes. Taste is like graphite.

Sample courtesy of weeare138. Poured a dark black color with an averaged sized tan head. Aromas of roast, vanilla, nuts, caramel, and some chocolate. Tastes of roast, chocolate, vanilla, and light coffee. A very nice stout indeed.
