Apr 7, 2009 bottle 22 oz: Thin head... black pour. Nice roasted sweet licorice malt smell. Flavor was slighty bitter with coffe and roast burnt malt. alcohol was bit much cold, but mellows as it warms up. Very very good.

Apr 6, 2009 2005 bottling. Wow, what a few years will do. Deep and Opaque. Cascades of Chocolate, molasses, coffee, liqueur. Malty but with a zip of bitterness to tame. Amazing purity and balance. The finish just lingers forever. Killer!

Apr 3, 2009 Pours black, with a thin tan head, good lacing. Aroma of molasses, espresso, plum, chocolate and pine. Thick, smooth body. Caramel and pine flavors stand out, with some chocolate and plum notes. Extremely well balanced.

Apr 3, 2009 Updated: Jul 24, 2009Took awhile to find one, but the wait was worth it. Pours like motor oil but the taste doesn’t disappoint. Wish i could try this on draft.

Apr 3, 2009 Spring 2008 Bottle (April 2009). First shower beer I’ve had in a good while, and I think the first time I ever brought a snifter into the shower- keeping the water out was an epic task, but on the plus side, I didn’t have to stick the glass in the dishwasher when I was done. Pours black with a decent tan head. Strong smoky smell at first; later, roasted malts, oatmeal, coffee. Tastes like it smells. Mouthfeel is nice and smooth but not overwhelming. Finish is mostly roasty with a little bitterness.

Apr 2, 2009 This was my second time tyiing this on draft. Poured a dark brown almost black. Aroma was strongg with coffee and roasted malts, but I also dettected notes of chocolate. The flavoor was about the same. It had a creamy feel to it. A very good stout.

Mar 31, 2009 Absolutely delicious. I regret only buying one bottle. So far, this is my favorite beer. I didn’t know beer could be this good. Smooth, rich, creamy taste that finishes amazingly well. Buy more than one bottle!
