Mar 23, 2006 Black pour and a thin orange brown head that rings. Aroma grabbed me and got my attention with a burnt toast and peppermint note. A light coffee ground aroma comes through too that is nice. Straightforward thin-bodied stout flavor. A touch of pineapple to the cocoa and coffee. It is much fruitier than I expected from a stout but it is not bad. Finish is primarily roast malt and cocoa.

Mar 19, 2006 Dark brown body with a slender tan head and a slender aroma of roasted malt and a dash of chocolate to back it up. Thin for a stout, but the flavor picks up somewhat, adding roasted barley, caramel, and burnt brown sugar to the mix. Needs more of something. <font size=-4>From <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=1 Fridge<font size=-1>

Feb 23, 2006 On tap at the brewpub. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Standard roasted malts are present. Chocolate and molasses are barely detectable. This one needs a bit more umph.

Feb 23, 2006 Middle-of-the-road type stout. Texture is creamy, but rather thin...and I detracted for that. Stouts, especially need to have big robust roundness of mouthfeel for me. Decent caramel/toffee/and molasses flavors and a lightly cereal oatmeal chewiness...but not enough of anything to really save it.

Dec 17, 2005 This beer excites the sense of smell with an aroma coffee and vanilla. It is a dark-dark brown color with a thick brown head. This beer enters the mouth thick and heavy but only produces a moderate coffee taste upon swallowing. It is a shame that this beer does so much to entice the senses of smell and sight then fails the sense of taste miserably.

Nov 28, 2005 12oz - Aroma is subtle roasty chocolate malt. Pours black with a medium brown head and good lacing. Flavor is offensive. I haven’t said that before. The chocolate malt tastes like stale milk with an astringency I detest in beer. Palate is watery and not really there. Not a very good stout in my opinion.
