21iceman40 (1671), north little rock, Arkansas, USA Feb 9, 2008 i got to have a small glass of this in the brewery. Very big and powerful yet only 8 percent. The chocolate and coffee are huge. Very good stout. Vino’s is still the only thing about arkansas that doesnt suck.
handsomejn (15), Arkansas, USA Mar 2, 2008 This stout is a treat, it pours a dark thick brownish black with a thin tan head. It has a velvety mouth feel, slightly sweet, hint of fig, with a strong coffee/dark chocolate taste. I rarely drink two of the same beers at a place that offers this kind of variety, but that is just what I did here. There was no after-burn. I loved it. goldtwins (3738), Nesconset, New York, USA Oct 30, 2007 GABF 2007: Poured a black color with a small tan head. Coffee, alcohol, esters, and sweet doughy notes make up the aroma. The flavor was sweet and roasty with some dry cocoa. Smooth mouthfeel and a medium body. Light alcohol on the finish. kp (6200), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Oct 21, 2007 Date: 10/12/2007

LilKem (1169), Marietta, Ohio, USA Jul 4, 2007 an excellent imperial stout. a very very thick dark brown stout with thick dark tan head. the aroma is nutty and rich with some heavy chocolate malt, some heavy hops and lots of coffee. this is not your average impy stout, it resembles a bigger idea in the brewing world and reminds me of some cali stouts. quite good and worth a visit to little rock.
