| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Jun 27, 2009 Opaque black with beige head. Aroma of boozy coffee and dark roasted malts. Flavor is dark roasted malts, coffee with nice duration. Incredibly creamy mouthfeel. Mmmmmmm! Saarlander (1577), Rancho Cucamonga, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 21, 2009 Pitch black pour, brown, slight head. This one is abit on the sweet side, what coffee is there, is Burnt in flavor, dark chocolate, some bitterness, alcohol is well hidden, enjoyed, but not great. JaBier (1200), Capital City, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 20, 2009 First time I tried this beer I was a bit disappointed because it didn’t taste a whole lot of coffee for a coffee stout. 22oz bottle that pours dark brown with a big tan head. Caramel malt aroma with some chocolate and the faintest hint of coffee. Subtle coffee flavor with caramel and chocolate in the finish. Subtle is good, but not in a coffee stout. Quality impy stout, but still disappointing on the coffee level. I want this beer to be to coffee like Choklat is to chocolate. bigrond (1044), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 14, 2009 I just couldn’t get into this one, maybe it was too sticky and sweet to enjoy. Pours like chocolate syrup into my glass, with a creamy brown head. Aroma is very rusty with lots of burnt coffee and and unsweetened baker’s chocolate. Flavoir is rich, with lots of coffee and molasses coming through. Mouthfeel is a bit too overwhelming to enjoy. shawnm213 (914), South Bend, Indiana, USA

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 11, 2009 Bottle split with Taftini. Pours a standard BLACKWATER SERIES body - pitch f***n black, no head. Aroma is strong coffee. Flavor is smooth, coffee, and chocolate malts. You can only just begin to taste a touch of alcohol if you take big gulps. This beer would be great as a desert. Maria (6167), Thisted, Denmark
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 10, 2009 Courtesy of Nbutler11, thanks Nick. It is pitch black with a small, light-brown, creamy head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, coffee, licorice, dark fruits, sweetness and preserved figs. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of roasted malt, coffee, licorice and dark, preserved fruit. I had hoped for a more pure taste of coffee, and IMO it is the overall impression very heavy – nice, but not nearly what I hoped for.
