3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20Real nice roasty coffee flavors, same on the nose. Nice frothy tan head. Only complaint is not a big enough body.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Nice floral hop aroma. Apperance is copper color. Good initial taste and continues through. Had at the Yazoo brewery, can’t remember the batch number. My favorite of all their beers that you can normally find in TN
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
12 oz, bottled 02-21-2013. Opaque with a quarter inch topping of creamy bubbles. Nose of espresso, graham cracker, caramel and ash. Taste is espresso, hickory smoke, marshmallow, tart berries and cream. Finishes with ash and piquant green herb. Near-medium body has light-medium carbonation and is balanced with a dry roasty finish. Great session stout in the traditional style.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft. Served in a Shaker pint glass. Pours black with no head. (Lack of foam could be the server’s fault, not the beer itself.) Medium-low carbonation. Coffee and roasted malt aromas. Palate is a bit thinner than I expected; more like an Irish Dry than an American Stout. Predominate flavor of coffee. Bitterness is low; just enough hops for complexity. A smooth, easy-drinking stout. I’d have this again.

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours opaque blacl, brown lacing. Nose is full of rich cocoa amd coffee bean. Palate is rich hot chocolate and cafe au lait. Great balance, rich flavor but not too filling or too sweet. Awesome with a pork sandwich.
3.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Tap at Yazoo brewery poured from Growler. Pours a gorgeous tan head with brown/tan lace all over the glass. Immediate Smokey coffee flavor is really nice. Coffee flavor is not too strong and the finish is a creamy malt texture. A real treat! Yazoo scored on this batch!
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Tap at Taco Mac Chattanooga - Pours black with a faint tan head. No lacing on the glass. Aroma is if coffee, but faint. Taste is sweet coffee with a dry finish. Palate is thin. Overall, this is a pretty bland stout.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Aroma is faint coffee, licorice, and soy sauce. Appearance is pitch black with small head. Flavor is bitter and a little odd with coffee and soy sauce. Overall sorry locals Id take Guinness over this.
