Apr 19, 2005 Dark black, with rich dark edges. Light islandic tan lacing. Nose of licorice, sweet roast and dark fruit, light tannins and a rich robusto espresso note. The flavor is very balanced with a bit of hot alcohol and more tangy rich dark things; molasses, soy sauce, etc. Finishes sweet and acidic. Beefy presence in the stomach. Decent, thanks TAR.

Apr 18, 2005 Bottle, from trade with TAR. Good nose, Soy sauce, viney, cocoa, molasses. Brownish black color, cocoa brown head that faded slowly to a ring. Bitter flavors, same as aromas with more emphasis on the viney molasses side. Medium body, lite & creamy, bitter warming finish. Good brew. Warmed up nicely, a drinkable 9%. Thanks TAR

Apr 1, 2005 acquired via trade with TAR. pours BLACK with a tan foamy head. I’ve never seen a bottle ooze foam like this one! poured about half the bottle into my .3L snifter and set the bottle down, then for several minutes the bottle looked like one of those snake fireworks things you would light as a kid, only in slow motion. it just kept oozing foam out of the top of the bottle. Oh yeah, back to the beer, sticky and sweet with a flavor of roasted malts, coffee, dark fruits and bittersweet chocolate. a bit too much carbonation for my taste, the carbonation seems to deract from the flavors in a way. Overall a nice IS, just a little different. Thanks Jeff!

Mar 30, 2005 Black color with a medium tan head. Not much aroma at all, just a faint hint of barley. More in the flavor, but nothign else to match or enhance it. More like a weak barley wine than a stout.
