| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 23, 2007 Jet black color. Head is tannish and rapidly disappears, bummer. Aroma is muted, some brown sugar and slight roasted aromas peak through. Subtle. Flavor is light and and subdued. Finishes with some bitterness and some dried fruit flavors. Decent, but not inspiring BustedFlat (553), Edina, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 21, 2007 16 ounce bottle. Snifter. Black with a dark brown head. Aroma was of sweet malt and chocolate. Taste was sweet with notes of coffee and cream, chocolate and roast malt. I was pleasantly surprised with this one. ross (1709), weddington, South Carolina, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 10, 2007 Bottle from Ryan. Thanks. I really like these 16 oz bottles, especially for snifter beers. I dont know why. Pours out a thick black color with a tan head on it. Smell is roasted and full of chocolate flavors as well as some coffee. Taste is thick and rich, not too sweet, but it has a nice chocolate and roasted flavor to it. Pretty good stuff, I would say its a tad underrated, but I am biased towards stouts. ehhdayton (1113), USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 26, 2007 Smells grassy, like it’s not quite done. It tastes good, but with a noticeable alcohol flavor. I can’t find anything to rave about.It’s not bad. It’s just not special. orville (160), Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | May 24, 2007 Overated!!! Smells like ethonal; not a good start. Pours a dark black and on the first sip it taste sweet and slighly chalky; not bad, but it gets worse from there. There’s a peculiar metalic like taste and the warmer it gets the more you taste the alcohol and chalk. Not a a good beer whatsoever. Petrucci914 (578), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 13, 2007 Pours a dark black/brown color. Tastes of choclate and roasted malts. The taste is balanced and the alcohol is never overpowering. One of my favorite stouts, so far. Tmoney99 (4716), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 9, 2007 Bottle from River’s Bend. Poured a black color with a large frothy brown head that lasted and produced sticky legs and good lacing. Good roasted malt and dark fruit aroma. Full body with a smooth sticky texture. Complex sweet stout flavor with a medium fruity bittersweet smooth finish of moderate duration. Very well balanced stout.
