Aug 18, 2008 After Southern Tier Choklat, Iwas stoked about trying this one, but found it underwhelming. Nice palate, full body, but boring flavor and aroma.

Aug 9, 2008 bomber. Pours black with a brown head which dissipated quickly. nose was of licorice, coffee and alcohol. Taste was sweet chocolate, oat and molasses. Mouthfeel was medium-to-thick with alcohol noticeable. Very good, although I liked their Jah-va better.

Aug 5, 2008 After my rather disappointing stout experience last night, I thought I’d give it another shot with a different beer. Poured black with a light brown head. Rich aromas of dark chocolate, bourbon, dark fruits, apple skins, and brown sugar. Flavor is rather sweet with some notes of caramel, brown sugar, some fruitiness with apple, pear, some light coffee, and some peppery alcohol. Finish is more toward the sweet side with leftover notes of coffee and fruit. Body is fairly chewy. Overall a great stout experience, and my enthusiasm for the style is pretty much revived.

Jul 18, 2008 Courtesy of Bmartin. The aroma has a sharp bitter black chocolate/espresso aroma. The body is full on black and holds a diminishing dark mocha head. Mild roast/burnt malt notes segue into dark chocolate, liquor soaked dark fruits and a general impression of smoothness. It doesn’t really wow, but stays thoroughly decent.
