Draught at the pub St-Patrick, St-Alexandre and Cafe du Temps Perdu. Also several times from the bottle. Deep black. Coffee, chocolate, roastiness, oatmeal, cereals/grainy, caramel and a good hop presence (especially in the finish). Extremely creamy, heavy, visquous, almost oily. Amazing with dark bitter chocolate. A complex, yet very drinkable stout! Cheap and easily available year-round in the majority of beer stores and supermarket. BeerHawk (1175), Huntsville, Alabama, USA Dec 23, 2008 Bottle. Poured black with a creamy tan head that has a thin layer lasting and left light lace. Nice milk chocolate and coffee aroma. The flavor also finds chocolate and coffee with a light bitter roast background. Medium body, smooth, and a toffee aftertaste. A very great stout! darkstar (69), Eureka, Missouri, USA Dec 20, 2008 Pitch black with nice tan head that lingers. Coffee, dark chocolate with a slight bitter finish. Very nice beer. hopheaven (79), Eureka, California, USA Dec 15, 2008 Updated: Jan 10, 2009A pitch black beer with an aroma that embodies the word "stout"; it is bright and striking, a battle between coffee and burnt chocolate with roasted barley ready on the sidelines. In every aspect this beer has an upfront and lingering sweet coffee appeal. Its taste is also characterized by a strong roasted barley presence, faint caramel, residual chocolate notes, and a trace of black licorice. The mouthfeel is fabulously creamy and chewy. An underlying bitterness seals the deal. pumpmaster (473), Pembroke Pines, Florida, USA Dec 13, 2008 11.5 ounce bottle purchased at Case & Keg Boca Raton, FL for $2.25 Very good.
