UPDATED: MAR 5, 2024 On tap at The Beer Cellar-Glen Ellyn, IL. as a 9 oz. serving to a snifter, showing a black/brown hue, with a fluffy/rocky layer of tan froth to a persistent ring, with ribbons of lacing. The nose was malt, expressive roast, with mocha notes that were more cocoa-centric than coffee, hints of dark caramel & dark/dried fruit, and slight nuttiness & oak. Better than medium bodied, the taste was similar notes, with decent carbonation, some pleasant silkiness to the texture, and a roasted, moderately earthy bitterness. An excellent Stout.
