May 24, 2008 The Dan Journal #171. Tasted 5/3/08. 750ml bottle. Pitch brown hue. Layer of taupe head. Coffee and slight raisins in the aroma. Slight berries and cocoa. Full bodied and crisp yet bitter. Nice yeasty citrus flavor. Typical belgian yeast character. Good sticky malts. Rye bitterness. Tangy and the yeast character is a little too overt. It’s what it is, Belgian styled.

May 23, 2008 Updated: Oct 1, 2008750 ml. Three finger head that leaves nice lace. Aroma is charred coffee beans and hickory wood, lightly sweetened with molasses, and some light whiffs of citrus-bready yeast. Flavor is espresso, peppery green hickory, dry cocoa, charred oak, vanilla, and molasses. Some slight bubblegum, brown sugar, and yeast show up a bit later in the glass. This is the least sweet Foreign Stout I have tasted to date, but that isn’t a bad thing. Heavy body is smooth and slightly dry.

May 21, 2008 Pours with a disappointing head, thin and low, has some slight Belgian yeast aromas with Munich and Roasted malt hints. Flavor is thin with some roast and hop flavor and bitterness noted. Average, not the best of Allagash. Decent beer at a high price.
