Very dark brown pour with a chestnut rim. Aroma is super dark roast and hints of hardwood and cedar. Flavor has a woody dryness to it. Not bad. This beer reminds me of wood burning kits one would play with as a kid.

Oct 5, 2008 2008 Bottle - Pours almost black with a brown head....aroma is burnt grain, molassas, flavour is pretty expected, astringent biterness, coffee/chocolate nuance...a good dry stout, not my favorite style brew, but pretty good...

Sep 27, 2008 Pours black with a slight tan head. Aroma is of roasted coffee, chocolate, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Sticky mouth-feel. Taste is of roasted malt (coffee and chocolate) and some slight bitterness with a dry finish. Simple, straightforward example of a dry stout.

Sep 25, 2008 Bottle at Hi 5 Raleigh. Very dark brown colored stout with a medium sized light tan head that went down to a near-flat look. Roasty flavors, some caramel and bitter, chocolately notes. Not a blows-me-away kind of stout, but I did enjoy it and it left me wanting more brew.

Sep 6, 2008 Found this one bottled at the Binny’s in St. Charles, Illinois. Unexpectedly good, especially for a warm late summer evening. Thick and milky dark brown pour with a thick light brown head, milk chocolate in the nose, slightly earthy, with oatmeal, soy sauce, barbeque sauce, barley, rye bread ... the list goes on. An amazing accomplishment.
