3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Black, thin brown head. Really pronounced coffee aroma, with notes of prune. Tastes a bit sweeter than I was expecting, with nice flavors of coffee and smoked bacon (no, really). Dries out in the finish. Nicely enjoyable stout. Draft at the Flying Saucer, Nashville.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Almost black pour with tight tan head and lace. (cask) Light chocolate malt on the nose. Powdery cocco flavor with a good hard/medium bitter. Thin and slightly water. A beer that had a bit of an ashy texture. Overall pretty good. I will try again not on cask.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pitch black coloured body with a creamy medium-sized light brown head. Aroma of malt and little else. Full-bodied; Strong tastes of coffee and roasted malt linger throughout the mouthful and some sugar prevails at the end, but a very simple finish. Overall, a nice example of a dry stout, especially from Tennessee! I had this beer on draught at the Flying Saucer in Nashville, Tennessee.

On tap at the brewery. Pours dark brown with a well-formed two-finger beige head. Aroma is roast, coffee, molasses, and hops. Flavor is a little weak, but hell, it is 3.8%. Roasted malt, coffee, molasses, slight caramel, and nuts. Pretty watery on the palate. Would like more body to it. Overall this is a nice "session stout" if there is such a thing, but not my first pick by any means if I’m at Yazoo.
