Sep 11, 2009 On tap yesterday at the TG brewpub on a beautiful summer night. This stout was a perfect comeback to the buffalo burger. I’m tasting roast malt, root beer, hops. slight dark khaki head. a little drying on the tongue but proper thickness & a hint of sweet. i taste roast malt, dark coffee, wood smoke, an oaken sour. I was wondering if this might be in the imperial stout category, but here its quite a bear, thick, easy drinking, walking an edge or two. just might br my best (non-imperial) stout.

Dec 30, 2008 Tap at TFD Boise: Nearly a black pour with a nice creamy brown head. Very nice bits of lacing. Aroma is heavy on the roast with light amounts of coffee. Taste is again roasty with light coffee and a nice bittersweet cocoa sensation. Well balanced in flavor and has a nice creamy feel. Really quite enjoyable.

Dec 30, 2008 Black beer with a great tan head. Coffee and roast on the aroma. Light sweetness too. Mocha, roast, chocolate flavors. A little cola flavors too. A touch of earth/roasted bitterness in the finish. Nice drinker.

Jul 22, 2007 On Tap at Flying Pie in Boise. Pitch black with a very thick dense tan head. Nice roasted aroma with lots of chocolate, tootsie roll and Flavor is sharp roasted smokey goodness. Pretty full body, smooth palatte and soft carbonation. Leaves a slightly green hopppy bitterness at the end. A great middle weight stout.

Apr 30, 2007 Draft: Black but with brown highlights, 1 finger tan head. Aroma of coffee, chocolate and a nice fresh bread smell. Flavor is of roasty coffee with bittersweet chocolate notes and biscuits! I really like the biscuit flavor through this that separates it from other stouts. Its not real sweet and not dry either. A quite balanced brew.
