Jun 21, 2009 Received as a gift. Pours a dark black color. Aroma was not strong at all. Flavor was much better than the aroma. Very roasty with malty chocolaty goodness. Different for a stout because of the belgian yeast. Pretty tasty.

Jun 17, 2009 From a cask at Rattle n Hum. My first reaction was, wow, what is this stuff? Slightly vinous, smoky aroma. It tastes like a dark, roasty bock with a good amount of sweetness and a clean, hoppy close. There are touches of herbs and chocolate too. It is pretty complex and develops nicely on the palate. A very interesting and enjoyable brew.

Jun 16, 2009 750 ml bottle (batch 4) - Pours a clear brown color with a one finger thick light tan head. Light lacing. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, and light coffee. Flavor is much of the same with the addition of some light esters. Roasted malt lingers a tad on the palate. The alcohol is noticeable at the finish. Medium body. A nice beer.

Jun 15, 2009 Black. Surprised? Big brown head that laces. Aroma is malt and bread. Taste is very complex. Coffee, chocolate, some smokiness in there,sweet and bitter. Finish is very dry and smooth with an alcohol bite. Mine said batch #9. Excellent.

Jun 15, 2009 Extremely dark brown. Massive, rocky head. Complex nutty/yeasty aroma with slight peanut butter...? Surprisingly soft, malty flavor. Light metallic notes at finish.

Jun 14, 2009 pours black with a white head and good lacing. smells like a sweet belgian with hints of chocolate, coffee and roasted malts. tastes like a good string belgian and a stout, so sweet at beggining with a nice finishing flavor of smoked malts and coffee accent. good aftertaste.
