Very big for the ABV, very drinkable and perfectly balanced but the aroma is a just a bit fater and more inviting then the taste actually delivers. hike20 (38), Iowa, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 9, 2009 Pours nearly black with a thin beige head and nice lacing. Coffee aroma and a little roasted malt. The flavor is complex with some coffee, malt, chocolate and a mildly smoky finish. Medium-heavy mouth feel is satisfying. Not too sweet nor bitter, good balance. Overall quite good and will probably be a regular for me. fata2683 (930), Panama City, Florida, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 16, 2009 Pours a near black brown with thin tan head. Aroma strong of roasted malt, coffee, slight chocolate, and a decent bit of smoke. Flavor matches well and has a very nice combination of flavors going on. Quite different, in a good way, than most other stouts. Finishes creamy and smooth.
