BDR (2139), Roseville, Minnesota, USA May 29, 2007 Nice dark color with a caramel nose. Thick mouth feel with a dry grin flavor. Thanks to Joebrew for sharing. juiceisloose (640), Windermere, Florida, USA May 29, 2007 Updated: Aug 29, 2008Poured black with a thin tan head and some lacing in the glass. Has hints of chocolate, coffee, and roasted malts in the aroma. The taste is the same with a smooth milky feeling as the beer goes down. A nice thick body that leaves a sweet taste behind. Thanks to elmatador for this one. Skyview (4007), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA May 29, 2007 A 12 oz bottle shared by joebrew. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with some red highlights and a thick tan head. Excellent retention and lacing. Aroma of dark chocolate, whipping cream, coffee, and a hint of sour pitted fruit. Taste is medium body, light carbonation, dark barley malt, light smoke and a touch of dark fruit. Finish is a little metalic and sweet. barleyPops (1079), Quad-Cities, Illinois, USA May 20, 2007 12 oz. bottle from BleacherBum. very dark brown, nearly black, on the pour with a short tan head trailing off to a ring of lace. aroma and flavors are of mild chocolate, coffee, some toffee and lactose sweetness. carbonation was a bit high and was medium bodied. a good session stout. bfeldmann (1042), Wilmington, Delaware, USA May 18, 2007 Poured a dark brown with red edges okay head and lacing. Aroma was coffee and chocolate. Flavor was a little off for me, weird fruitness to it, and milk stout, where is that. Mouthfeel was almost a little watery. Glouglouburp (2778), Montreal, Quebec, Canada May 17, 2007 Black body with a small tan head. With a name like this you know what’s coming. Indeed very lactic. The roasted malts blend in with the lactic elements to create a milk-chocolate taste. Carbonation is very active with lots of bubbles. The beer looses a few points for a light beany flavour (brown and green beans). Nice beer but I felt it was missing something, like an unfinished senten mgumby10 (1844), Jupiter, Florida, USA May 15, 2007 Courtesy muenster. pours a very dark brown with almost no head. Light fizzy white bubbles hug the edges. Smells of some roast and light coffee, but quite mild. The taste is quite sweet, much more than I was expecting. Some light chocolate, slight bitterness, with some heavy malt characters. Maybe a little too sweet for my liking, although it is a sweet stout. shadey (1496), Rochester, New York, USA May 12, 2007 I’ve been anticipating this beer since I read about it on ratebeer. The pour is black until held up to the light. It is really a very dark red. The head is large, filling the imperial pint glass. Large and small bubbles mix to form a light cream pile that slowly diminishes to leave only chunks of lasting head and lace. The aroma is sweet with a trailing roast. The flavor is sweet malt and mild roast. the body is tight carbonation up front but the finish is smooth. A well done milky smooth stout.
