| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 24, 2007 Dark brown (a little thin) and I can re-coax a creamy tan head by swirling. Rich chocolatey/dark fruit aroma with mild coffee roasts and dry, oaty background noise. Mostly full-bodied, but it turns watery by the time I swallow. Dark fruits and bitters in the flavor with a light touch of plastic. Ends quickly.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 24, 2007 Had on tap at Alehouse #1. Poured a very dark brown, very slight creamy head. Smelled like roasted coffee and taste was much of the same. A very slight, creamy sweetness was present as well. Another very good stout from this my favorite home town brewer! dwyerpg (2553), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 11, 2007 Smells like coffee and taste is almost the same, with some roasted notes. Pretty good and not too thick, though I don’t like coffee too much. Maybe a bit over-rated. edden (927), cow- lumbus, Ohio, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 10, 2007 6/8/07: On tap @ Ale House #1 Rich black-opaque body with a small, nice deep tan head. Lace slightly clings to glass. Chocolate malt nose. Yum! – malted milk ball flavor with a mix of roasted coffee and hops. Nicely balanced, finish has a nice hop bite. Glad to see this one re-surface.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 4, 2007 On draught at Ale House #1. I really didn’t think this one would come around again considering I first heard of it 5 years ago and never saw it in rotation since. Needless to say it was a pleasant surprise to find it over the weekend. The beer is a flat black color with a medium ivory colored head that retains pretty well. Patchy lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet malt and roasted coffee beans. Rich, smooth body with a nice roasted character. Flavors of malt, coffee and sweet chocolate, along with a touch of hops. The finish is smooth and milky with a sweet malt and chocolate flavor. Leaves a bit of bitter coffee on the tongue in the end. Solid all around. Darkover (1316), Columbus, Ohio, USA

Aroma, roasted malts, some brown sugar. Flavor, bittersweet chocolate, roasted malts, on the sweet side, and the body was kinda milky. Pretty good. bgburdman9 (823), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 19, 2007 On the firkin at barleys. Black with an average light brown head. A pretty solid aroma with some chocolate and roastiness to it. Flavor was pretty good also but the body was very thin. Pretty solid stout actually.
