| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 21, 2009 Growler fill at Half-Time. Pours a deep dark black with a medium large tanned head. Slightly astringent roast on the nose. On the thin side of medium bodied, big roast flavors. Finishes with a big long roast bitterness. Nice sessionable stout with more flavor than one usually finds on a session stout. fidel (944), Livermore, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 16, 2009 Poured dark brown, roasted malts, nutty, dark chocolate, coffee, little dark fruits, little oatmeal. csbosox (1081), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 8, 2009 Odds are this is an old bottle, part of a mix a six and I never got around to drinking it, until now. Good stuff, I wasn’t going to bother rating, but I would pick this stuff up again, for sure. Rich, roasty, chocolatey and fruity with some body, but a nice bitter/dry finish. Very easy to drink. jbye4334 (697), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 2, 2009 (on tap at the brewery). Dark brown color. Medium tan head. Nutty coffee aroma. Coffee flavor. Avg duration. Creamy texture. Moderate carbonation. Fair lacing. GG (1640), NorCal, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jun 27, 2009 Easily, one of the better dry stouts I’ve had in recent memory. Avery can be hit or miss with me and this beer hits pretty damned close to dead center. The pour is fantastic. Deep black body, creamy dark tan head, nice lacing..near picture perfect. Aroma is big on roasted malts, some coffee beans, black cherries, vanilla ice cream, and molasses. Flavor has some big bitter coffee/dark chocolate notes, a long lingering bitter finish (like chewing on a coffee bean). The bitterness really stays with you several minutes after drinking. Mouthfeel is very coating, slightly cloying but not bad. Fantastic beer for the style. Love the bitterness it brings. Listigovers (101), Ontario, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 27, 2009 Tasty, but fairly thin. It was definitely a good beer, but again, not a GREAT beer. Fun label! Good flavour, but needs more body to truly impress. bbrock81 (221), Le Mars, Iowa, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jun 26, 2009 Great beer! Pours opaque black with a tiny, tan head. Aroma is very rich, extremely roasty, coffee-ish, and malty. Flavor is similar, with a lot of roasty, coffee bitterness that is very nice. There is also a decent hop flavor toward the finish, but nowhere near the "mountain" that’s in the description. Palate is average, light and fine carbonation. BeerBaron617 (306), Novi, Michigan, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jun 25, 2009 Shared this with MereLikesBeer. This pours an opaque dark brown with tan head. The aroma is strong coffee,while the flavor is more of chocolate. I liked this alot, and the price is right. Cheers!
