Dec 10, 2005 Thanks to pailhead for this bonus brew! Wow, very good beer, very satisfying. Dark color, nice thick brown head. Flavor was very roasted, with a good amount of alcohol to tingle the palate.

Nov 10, 2005 Bottle received from OhioDad. Pours opaque thick black liquor with a thick creamy tan head with lined lacing. Port and raisin, prune fragrant floral hop aroma with dark roasted coffee and dark chocolate malt notes and a bit of oak, overall a very inviting aroma. Dark coffee and chocolate moderately bitter port and alcohol flavor, bitter and dry hoppy finish. Dark bodied and dry palate.

Oct 31, 2005 Acquired in trade from OhioDad! Pours to a black body with a thin brown head that disapates rather quickly in my snifter to leave only a ring. So-so lacing. The aroma is chocolate, rubberbands (trust me, its there, perhaps a little too much), lots of black currants, light molasses. Sorta similar to those chocolate covered cherries that are so common during Christmastime. The flavor is huge. Charcoal, coffee, chocolate, black currants, kinda reminds me of the flavor in Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout I love so much. The palate has that dry charcoal feel atop a viscous body with a bitter licorice.

Oct 31, 2005 Big black pour with small tan head. Average impy stout aroma, coffee, chocolate, and roasted malt. Something just seems off in the flavor though, coffee seems like its strange, chocolate but weak. Just doesnt seem well balanced.

Oct 21, 2005 The body is black as possible. the large head is light brown and noisy as it settles. It looks more orange once it dies down. The aroma is chocolate and old coffee. There is also a little bit of molasses. The taste is a little sweet with molasses, coffee and chocolate. There is a strong roasted note in the finish. The body is thick and viscous. This is a nice one from Arcadia. Thanks a lot for the bottle, Duane.
