| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 9, 2004 Tap. You know how much poker I’ve been playing in the past few months? So much that when I see "563", the first thought is "Man, that hand is gonna be a real uphill climb if you raised pre-flop in an early position with AK" Opaque black, lasting beige head. Exceptionally rich, nice, coffee-dominated aroma. Nice! The flavor carries the roasty coffe, but the mouthfeel is just too plain thin to make this a legendary beer despite its other good points. nickd717 (1383), Palo Alto, California, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 25, 2009 From tap at the brewpub. Pours dark brown to black with a small creamy and tan head. Classic nitro pour. Hardroasted and dark malty aroma, light coffeeish. Creamy mouthfeel. Quite sweet and toffee roasted caramel malt towards dark breadish. A bit thin in the mouthfeel for the finish but with a nice lingering roasted malt flavour and light bitterness coming through.
