Mar 21, 2007 On tap at Durty Nellie’s - Palatine, IL. Deep brown nitro pour with a creamy off-white head and nice lacing. Aroma picked up sweeter, lightly-roasted chocolate.. felt a tad rushed with some airy floral notes.. overall artificial feel to it. Flavor found mildly-bitter dry chocolate and coffee notes.. mostly empty middle.. grainy, unpleasant finish. Light-bodied with a heavier sweetness on the palate. Not a good stout.

Mar 13, 2007 From the tap, served in a restaurant pint glass.
Poured a dark brown with foamy, creamy slightly off-white head that settled into a thin creamy lacing.
Softly sweet aromas, coffee with cream and candied caramel.
Steady, but moderate carbonation and a softly crisp, watery slick, dryish, creamy smooth almost medium-light bodied mouthfeel.
Sweet, watery tasting, a light earthy coffee with sweet cream, caramel mixed with watery cereal grain, the roastiness of the malts is subtle at best, hops, what hops?, and a dryish, watery charcoal, cereal, caramel finish.
I had this at a restaurant with a beef burrito for lunch, the bartender bragged to me that this was better than Beamish, obviously he was full of shit.

Feb 26, 2007 On draft @ the Cottage in Lake Worth. I reluctanly tried this one after they ran out of all alternatives. No aroma. It looks like a stout, black, nice creamy head. Not much going on in flavor. Tastes pretty much like black water. There was some metal taste. Not EVEN close to a decent stout!

Feb 18, 2007 Just an average stout for me. Easy drinking. It replaced Mooney’s Irish stout at a local pub which I’m terribly sad about.

Feb 17, 2007 On tap. Black with a small, thick, brown head. As expected, similar to Guinness but not quite as strong. Not great, but good and refreshing.
