bb (2069), Martinez, California, USA Aug 19, 2008 Draft. Blackish beer with a light tan head. Chocolate and oatmeal aroma. Huge oatmeal/barley flavor with coffee. Medium body. Lingering oatmeal, light chocolate, roasty coffee. Oatmeal is too strong. I don’t like lots of oatmeal or coffee in beers so why did I ever get this... yespr (6162), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 6, 2008 From tap at Solana Beach. Pours pitch black with a lacing tan head. Aroma is hard roasted malt and mild coffeeish. Flavour follows this closely with a nice acidic roasted malt touch and a light hoppy. Bitter and roasted malt finish. Nice and lingering. Oscbert (239), Sacramento, California, USA Jun 17, 2008 ~Pours black with thick creamy off white head. Almost looks like coke from all the carbonation.
~Strong malty, woodsy coffee scent.
~Coffee flavor with a nice bitterness.
~Creamy mouth feel. Bitter finish.
~This is a great beer. Yum! Snojerk321 (943), San Diego, California, USA May 31, 2008 Sample @ the brewery in Linda Vista. Pour was almost black with a small beige head that left good lacing. Some coffee and toasted aromas. Flavor was a little weak but, followed the Dry Stout suit perfectly. wetherel (977), Carlsbad, California, USA May 28, 2008 Got a taster at Home Brew MArt. Black. Big, medium bubble tan head. Lots of coffee and roastiness. Initially turned me and I was dreading finishing my sample. But either after warming up, or becoming desensitized to aroma and taste, it became much better. Any way, not my bag baby.
