Dec 2, 2006 Very dark stout with a quickly dissolving tan head. Bitter chocolate and coffee flavors result in a slow, complex drink. A bit too bitter in my opinion, but an enjoyable aroma and interesting flavor make it a worthwhile experience

Nov 28, 2006 Bottle. Super dark opaque brown with minimal lacing. Rich malty aroma, some hints of chocolate, nuts, and an obvious roasted overtone to all of it. More of the same in the mouth, obviously malty but with a dominant burnt toast body. Smooth and rich with a nice lingering bitteress.

Nov 27, 2006 So this one pours a basic black color with an extremely thin tan head that goes away in not time even with an aggressive pour. The aroma is full of rich coffee smells and is very roasty. The flavor is like that good smack in the face a cup of black coffee can give you followed by some lactic sweetness and a bit of chocolate. Extremely robust and enjoyable as all hell. This is a fantastic stout.

Nov 12, 2006 A very nice, coffee falvored, hopped beer. A very satisfying beer. Not overwhelmingly anything, but at least satisfying.

Nov 6, 2006 I enjoyed this stuff. Poured a dark brown with a pretty good (but fizzy) tan head. Nice chocolate, coffee, malt, caramel aroma. Flavors of chocolate, coffee, roasted malt, hops, a little fruit, and oats. Medium mouthfeel.

Nov 3, 2006 It came in a bottle shaped like a pint whiskey flask, I couldn’t resist. The first pour was into a 12 oz. glass. The head disappeared before I set the bottle down. A strong malt flavor filled and coated my mouth. It was smooth with strong coffee and chocolate characteristics. The late arriving hops mellowed out the flavorand left a pleasant aftertaste. It seemed flat, lacking in carbonation. Foreshadowed by the lack of a head. Perhaps I had a bad bottle.

Nov 1, 2006 Dark brown, almost black, with a thick ligt brown foam. Tones of licorice, coffee and chocolate. Medium to full body with long bitter finish.
