Jul 25, 2006 Bottle. Very dark mahogany and a reasonably tall beige head. Faint aroma of toasted nuts, roasted malt and cocoa. Semisweet chocolate, coffee caramel and roasted malt flavor all pretty well balanced with a classicly modest fuggles/nutty hop kick. Mouthfeel a bit too thin for a stout and a short, roasty finish.

Jul 18, 2006 Bottle. Dark with a foamy tan head. Bitter roasts, molasses, hints of brown sugar and burnt wood. Nothing extraordinary but solid.

Jul 18, 2006 Black, wth creamy light brown rich head and smokey nose. A little thin for a stout, but a refreshing drink none-the-less. Light tastes of coffees and chocolate, and smooth finish.

Jul 18, 2006 First impression is that of a black thick beer with brownish lasting foam. Aroma is suprisingly smokey and tary, I would say almost hickory-like. Taste is rich with roasted barly, and notes of chocolate. Nice hoppy bitterness that never takes over. I’d say this is among the best beers I’ve had so far. Really like it. (Only wish it came in smaller bottles.) Had it by the way to chocolate mousse and the combination was nothing but devine. Try or die!

Jun 10, 2006 Updated: Jan 22, 2007Black. Very toasty oatmeal taste. Unlike some other oatmeal stouts this does not have a chocolate or coffee taste. Explains why they have a double chocolate and this.
