lgklotet (396), Stockholm, Sweden Oct 4, 2007 Bottle at SBWF 2007. Thank you Oliver Twist! This is amazing stuff. Dark and black. Rosty malt, chocolate. Almost a bit astringent. One of the best, no doubt.
graham515 (298), Austin, Texas, USA Sep 7, 2008 Pours a dark black into the glass with a nice tan head. Aroma is roasted grain and coffee. Flavor is bitter chocolate with some raison like tones. Alcoholic taste is a little harsh as the brew warms. timsilvia32 (211), born in Michigan, North Carolina, USA Sep 6, 2008 Cloudy black/brown pour. Very roasty aromas. Tastes of roasted malts, bakers chocolate, coffee, a little licorice. Quite full bodied. A little overly harsh with hoppiness. Good lingering coffee/bitter finish. Can’t complain about this one. kopher (114), USA Sep 5, 2008 Pours very dark thick brown, lots of light-brown head. Very nutty, roasty aroma, with tons of green olives and earthy hops at the end. Taste is sweet at the front, surprisingly sharply bitter at the finish. Lots of chocolate, but the lasting finish is hops. Mouthfeel is surprisingly light for a stout, a bit dry, but good.
Whiskeyjack (2), , Massachusetts, USA does not count Sep 4, 2008 Pleasant mild aroma with a note of fruitiness. Pours with an awesome, full, brown head that leaves a pretty lace pattern to the glass. The beer itself is practically opaque, as black as night, The flavour is fantasticly balanced between bitterness and sweetness. There are tastes of smoke and a dark chocolate present. The beer tastes great & has a full body with a creamy testure. mekju_baksa (9), Houston, Texas, USA does not count Sep 4, 2008 On Tap in snifter. Really fricking good. Rich and deep flavors that are subtle. Roasted malt complexity that demands attention. Just incredibly great!
